Basque Gastronomy - Spain

Oct 2003
The closed world of private men's clubs doesn't usually boast a group of fanatical cooks.

But in the Basque country, men get together to cook succulent, gastronomic feasts for each other. Competitions are held between the best cooks, and it's all washed down with lots of red wine. With women forbidden from the proceedings, the popularity of these clubs is growing by the day.

I have married the wrong man..

si, es cierto, en euskadi me siento como en Asturias muchas veces. Es un pueblo orgulloso y muy muy amistoso y agradable y la comida se parece muchisimo.

Han venido muchos vascos para aprender y ver como se elabora sidra en Asturias y han recuperado su producto a un nivel increible.

Me siento como en casa allí.

Para mi galicia, Asturias y euskadi (tambien navarra) me parecen los lugares más maravillosos de españa

@nanako0590 basque is a language isolate which means it has no known relatives, we don't know where it came from

Basque is spoken in northern Spain, not in the south.

esa you crazy? The Basque language is not Arabic. It is a isolate language. Search. Actually, it's probably the first European language spoken by the Iberian peninsula.

No, this is basque language, comes from Maghreb, it's a kind of an arabized berber language imported during the invasion of Italy by Hannibal. It's been spoken in Southern Europe, not too far from Africa.
