I Only Ate Spanish Food for 24 Hours

Hola. Today we are only eating Spanish food in London for 24 hours. If I get hungry, Spanish food. If I get thirsty, sangria. There's a Spanish joint just down the road so we're going to walk over now. This is the first place, La Bodega. Let's go. Hi there, how you doing? Table for two please. The weather is terrible in London right now but it's warm enough to sit outside. I don't think we have breakfast. I feel like we just have to get a paella. I used to always call it a paella. I found out that was wrong. I hope this is £27 for the one paella by the way. Paella. Paella. Two person minimum order. £27. That is for one. There's no way we can be doing £60 on paella. You know the chicken paella? Yeah. Is that a one person price or a two person price? No, that's just the paella. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's pretty big. Okay, cool. Awesome. So one of them please. And then I'll just do a glass of sangria. And do you want to do a glass as well? Yeah, I'll do a glass. Two glasses of sangria please. Thank God. I was going to sweat. I was like, we've got to go to like four more places today. So, you know, can't be doing £60 on a paella. It'd be cheaper to go to bloody Spain. I think it's fair to rate that 3.6 out of 5. It's no better and it's no worse. But I would happily bathe in it. Looks banging. Okay. Paella, here we go. I haven't had a paella in a while. Oh, that looks great. Look at that. When they put chicken with bones in a paella, it kind of freaks me out. I'm not going to lie. Chicken paella, here we go. It's going to be roasting hot. I'm going to burn my tongue, but am I going to eat it anyway? Yes. You know what? I didn't think it would be this good. It's pretty solid. It's pretty watery. Not watery in a bad way, but it's like pretty wet. If you like a wet paella, this is it. Loads of veg in there as well. I would heavily recommend this. We're going to finish this up and then we're going to go and check out this little Spanish market over there. I'm going to give that a 3.9. Let's go to the supermarket now. It's literally round the corner, by the way. I think we're in the Spanish headquarters of London. Also, we saw a Spanish family. There was a family of 10 in there, all speaking Spanish. I was like, do you really come from Spain to come to London to then get Spanish food? It's like me going to France and being like, oh yeah, I want a sausage and mash. Right, this is it, Garcia's. Guys, I think we've got some Spanish bits in here. How are you doing? Yeah, I'm just thinking maybe if I need some snacks. Have you ever seen that? Chorizo. Chorizo. This smells so good. I just want to find it. It's like the corn. Do you know what I'm talking about? The corn. This, for some reason, I don't know if this is like every Spanish kid's childhood, but whenever I would go to Spain, I would be like, I need these. These are fire. This is the corn. Yes, this is what I was talking about. This stuff, I would guzzle this. £1.75, I'm not understanding why that's five quid though. These are better. These ones are better? Yeah. Really? I might not spend five quid now just because he said that. Cheers. Thank you so much, ma'am. Gracias. Got my little snacks of corn. The guy made me spend £5 instead of £1.75, don't know why. Which are literally just chocolate biscuits. When we next get hungry, we can eat. I'm not really hungry now, so it's kind of chill. Okay, so we've got some time to kill, and also I'm a bit thirsty, so I've just Googled Bradley Spanish Bar has come up for a place to get a Spanish beer. Here we go. I mean, this is literally a regular pub. He's not a Spanish. How are you doing? Bradley? Your name Bradley? Oh, okay. I was like, damn, maybe not. I'll do the half pint of Galicia, please. Yeah, yeah, it's fine, mate. Thank you, man, that's it. Cheers, mate. Half a pint of Astraea Galicia. Galicia? Astraea Galicia? I mean, it tastes like all beer. It kind of tastes a bit gross. The place we are going to next, couldn't get a reservation, but we're going to get there 15 minutes early. It is a one-star Michelin Spanish restaurant. We'll see what the hype's about. This is one of London's most popping Spanish restaurants. We'll be the judge. I've had a sip of this, and I'm already loopy. Loopy for Bradley. I am forgetting about Sangria. Sangria was, honestly, now that I come to think of it, it was pretty average. I am starting to get hungry again, honestly. I know for you, it looks like we've just eaten, but it's actually been a couple of hours. And I don't know about you, but I've got a big stomach. Boy's hungry. It's 5.12 p.m. The place opens at 5.30. We're already in line. I tried to have a combo with this person, but they weren't having it. Am I friendly? Yeah. The queue has literally appeared, and there's still 14 minutes left, so I don't think they were lying. By the way, the queue was nuts to get in here. It picked up quick. People were just ready to come in, like, oh, excuse me. Excuse me, I've got a reservation. I was like, yeah, all right. Well, I've got a walk-in available, so what are you going to do? So they just noticed that we were filming, and they said, we're going to move you to a different seat so you can film it. So already, they're on it. They're paying attention. Thank you so much. Very kind. Amazing. How are you doing, chef? You good? Thank you. We're going to do both croquettes. These two, the Iberico. Don't know how you say it. I'm not even going to pretend to say it. The braised oxtail. And then we're going to go for a Spanish red pepper salad with hazelnuts. I don't even know what we're in for, but we'll give it a go. Sangria. It's got to happen. Two sangrias coming up. Yeah, we're doing it. Been given the sangria. A little taste test. Yo. Yeah. That is, that's pretty good. Thank you so much. Thank you, chef. Cheers. Fantastic. Thank you. I'm going to cut it in half. Wow. That is good. If you told me this was a cow's arse, I would eat it. That sounds really weird. No, you said that. That is filled lovely. Look at that. This is good food, man. I'm trying to hold it in and not go over the top. It is banging. Am I blushing from how good the food is? This is very good, actually. Really? Okay. Okay, cool. Awesome. I'm excited for this. I'm just going to go with everything together. Whoa. I know it's right there, but it's a bit mid. This one's a bit mid. If we weren't in a Michelin-star restaurant, you'd be like, I don't get it. Don't get me wrong. The croffetas were fire. This is a bit mid. The olive oil does look so good, mate. Thank you so much. The oxtail. Thank you. Oh, okay. Okay. That is pretty intense. I think this thing is chicken skin, and it's wrapped around the oxtail inside. Damn, this is pretty crazy. I know this sounds bad, but I'm really envisioning me dipping some chips in whatever this gravy thing is. It is so fire. Oh, yeah. This feels as soft as anything. I'm just going to get it all together. That is crap. That's unbelievable. That is unbelievable. Sabor done. That was £100.87. That was quite on the pricey side, but we ate at a Michelin-star restaurant. It was pretty banging. I can't lie. Am I spanned out yet? Not really. Spanish food's a vibe. I actually really like it. This is a Spanish restaurant. There's ours. Next stop is Brindisa, which is right here, a tapas restaurant. We're going to do this proper Spanish style. I don't know if Spanish people actually do this, but when I mean Spanish style, I just mean we're ordering a load of tapas, and we're getting into it. We've got to get a glass of sangria, surely. Bambaleo. I'm going to get done for copyright, so I won't sing. Ooh. It's heavy on the strawberry, but this might maybe be the favourite. Okay, so we've got the peppers, tortilla, and croquetas. These look salty. These are good. Yeah, these are great. Mmm. This is more of the traditional vibe. Now, this is why I imagine Spanish food, you know? This is really nice. It's like the shredded tomatoes on top, but drained. Croquetas. Here we go. Oh, yeah. Oh, my God, these are good. We might have to order another one of them. But the prawns, they are sizzling hot. The patatas bravas over here. And he recommended some bread, but I don't think we really need it. But, you know, just have to give in when people say sometimes. Let me get a bit of that, a bit of that. They could do with a bit more salt. Something about roasting hot. That is good. He was right about the bread. We needed the bread. Oh, my God. I prefer this place way more than Sabor. I'm sorry I'm saying it, but I really do. Next up, we're going to try some churros. Churros. This is a Mexican spot, but churros are Spanish and Portuguese. Just for you to fight in the comments, I said that, but I mean, they're Spanish. How are we doing? How are you? Good. Can we have one of your big... It's got pieces. Can it come as one or no? One a round. Yeah. Just one huge one. I could try. That would be like three orders. Did we do it? Yeah, we got to do it. Oh, my God. I can't wait. Guys, just to know, you cannot come here and do this. Don't get your mom to come and be like, we've come for a churro making day. It ain't a thing. I'm just going to go for it. There you go. Sweet. Thank you so much. We're just going to have to do it. Ready? This is so good. That's so nice here. I think we've hit the jackpot, everyone. This is brilliant. And the chocolate sauce. It's not too greasy. Chocolate sauce is brilliant. I'm coming back. That churro spot was banging. I'm glad I discovered this spot. Peace out. See you next week. Love ya.
