So glad this is where we landed. First let's talk about the service. Victoria and Alejandro were exceptional. So detailed and thorough with their explanation of the menu and recommendations. Not only did they explain the dishes but also gave cultural context. It was wonderful that this was within a market but felt like its own experience. The jamón was exceptional. Buttery yet flavorful. Would highly recommend to everyone

He gave a personal tasting assortment of cheeses and select cuts. He also helped prepare a personal picnic selection. If you're looking for Iberica ham to get your party started, you need to stop by. It is near the ballfighting stadium. Also offers tapas tasting tours.

Ellio (like Elliot, but without the 'T') and his wife have put their heart and soul into this shop and it shows. Being world travelers themselves, they understand visitors' needs and give suggestions accordingly and even wrap purchased items to ensure their safe conveyance home. What will you find here? Only the best jams, cheeses, honeys, specialty canned fish, jamon, spices (like famous Spanish paprika and saffron), olive oil, and wines within 200km of Seville. All local, specialty goods from tiny, family-owned companies. I know because I checked several shops and grocery stores and I did not see similar products. Ellio was generous enough to set up tastings of sherries, wine, cheeses, and spices. We bought so much excellent stuff (like this naturally spicy and smoky Spanish paprika I cant wait to give to my brother in law to use for good ol' Texas brisket), I really don't know how we will get it all home. We may just end up buying another small luggage. It may sound crazy, but that's how good the stuff is. Once Ellio understands your likes and dislikes a little more, he can make tailored suggestions. And these recommendations are usually spot on. The guy knows flavors, good food and drink, and can relate to customer needs. A few years ago, a customer visited his shop and asked for Ellio's suggestions for cooking an East Asian style duck. Ellio recommended Seville bitter orange preserves. Well, it turned out to be a hit because the customer, who took a video of his experience and put it on YouTube, was a food critic who extolled the virtues of the Seville bitter orange preserves with duck on a South Korean cooking show. Over the last two years, so many Korean tourists have visited this shop, that when Ellio tried re-arranging the shelves, the customers were thrown for a loop. So Ellio returned the preserves to their original corner and labeled the shelf in Korean. What a story! I am sure Ellio and his wife's fame will grow as they continue to sell some of the finest products from around Seville to consumers at excellent prices. True value, not outrageous prices for "luxury goods," is what they are all about. God bless them. I will definitely return. Meanwhile, I can't help thinking that Ellio seems like he would be a great guy to have a beer with.

I successfully found a meat counter that sells very fancy pants Iberico ham. The pigs feet are black. They ate acorns all their lives, until they die and their meat is super sweet, tender and filled with nutty flavors. Sought after in the world, in its local grocery stores, this ham cutting station is a total scene. I have had Iberico ham before in other parts of Spain, but to come to a supermarket and get some freshly sliced ham is something else. I had 100 grams of Iberico ham and it's roughly $6.50. Very delicious. I bought cheeses, drinks, bread and varies charcuterie items, tiny eels which I love to eat (white, small eel looking fish), caviar, freshly sliced Iberico ham, water, oranges and grapes. With all that we had our dinner in the hotels and the left over turned into one breakfast and three lunches. This is one thing I've learned over the last few years of traveling in Europe. Americans like to eat every meal sitting down at a restaurant or cafe, Europeans like to pack their own food, especially Germans and Scandinavians. I find that very puzzling at first and sort of cheap ass, because why would you not want to spend money on a meal, after all you are traveling? Then I realized in the last two years how advantageous this is, when you 1) have a lot to see; 2) don't want to gorge and get too fat by eating every meal at a restaurant; 3) save some money and time; 4) get to enjoy local food as opposed to touristy food served for fat Americans. I highly recommend Americans to try that approach. I returned the next day and bought 15 different packaged Iberico ham, salami and sausages to take with me to my home office, where it's almost Chinese New Year season and it's time to hand out sausages and ham to colleagues around Asia. Very excited about bringing gifts to my colleagues. Finally, I also purchased lots of interesting local candies and cookies to bring back to my friends in the States (meats are not allowed in the States). I hope that they will appreciate the sentiment.
