This Spain & Portugal Challenge is brought to you by the Menu Ideas & Help Forum

Welcome to beautiful Barcelona, Spain!!!! Barcelona is the capital of Catalonia and has always been known for its refined cuisine and gorgeous scenery.

Challenge: Non Cooking
Played by: up to 5 players
Points: 2 points

Regional dishes include lamb with garlic, rice with seafood and squid ink; cod baked in tomato, garlic, white wine and paprika; white bean and sausage stew; and a lovely rustic country bread "Pan anb Tomaquet", smeared with tomatoes and olive oil.

Today you will be taking a scenic Hot Air Balloon ride. Once up in the air, your pilot will pop open a few bottles of top quality Catalan Champagne, called "Cava" for you to make a toast, while gliding over the dramatic valley.

You will then land in a beautiful local village and partake of a scrumptious Barcelonian lunch.

Challenge:

1) Your challenge is to prepare a menu for this lengthy FIVE course meal. You may include wine pairing if you like.
2) Post your menu here or the player may post a link to their public menu.

Don�t Forget to Include Your Team Name in Your Post

Good Luck!!!

on behalf of the Sassy Saucepan Clan...

a long, luscious lunch after a balloon ride.

some Sangria to sip while we catch our breath

some fino to accompany the first courses

and then some more cava to enjoy with our sweet.

Ah, Barcelona!
