Wow! This recipe tastes as enchanting as it sounds. The French have a way with food and sauces that can’t be beat. Combine the Chateaubriand with the potato soufflé and top both with this rich yet elegant Bordelaise sauce and you’ll think you are in the south of France. Choose your wine to match. You won’t even need dessert because you’ll be delightfully satisfied.

A German Restaurant worthy of its name in Lexington, Kentucky.
We have been to Germany several times and this is the best restaurant I’ve ever found in the USA that tastes and feels like you are actually there. As we sat at one of the little tables with our friends Bob and Evelyn Barnard, who had taken two tours in Germany while with the army, we enjoyed reliving our visits over there and tried to use the few words we remembered. The first time we ever ate jagerschnitel was in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. We had been driving all day and by now it was dark and we were very hungry. There were no fast food places and not many restaurants to choose from. Finally in the dark we saw lights from windows of a restaurant I can’t remember the name of. We parked the car and walked a short distant and when we opened the door there was music and singing and dancing and everyone was so happy to see us. It was like they had been expecting us to join their party and we were running late. What a fun evening and a perfect way to end our day of travel.

What I’ve learned about living in Spain
Savoring The Last of Summer in Spain
Madrid, the capitol of Spain, has castles, the most museums, the largest Plazas and the busiest streets. We found out quickly that the roundabouts work well here because when you make a mistake which is easy to do and you need to turn around you just go to the next roundabout and go the other direction. The parking under the streets works well too to get you where you want to be the closest to. They have shopping for everyone except gun enthusiasts since Spain has a law against owning guns.
One of the restaurants that Natalie showed us was one her father in law said was his favorite. He travels to Madrid a lot so we took his suggestion. And we are so glad we did. It is called Las Cuevas De Luis Candelas and it is under the main square in a cave. The sangria was filled with different kinds of fruits, the salmon was grilled to perfection, the salad was cold and crisp and the ice cream was just enough to share. At the end of the meal they brought us a small cup of strong black hot coffee and that was perfect to end the afternoon with. We just added a lot of sugar and cream.
Roman Spa/ Relaxing
After days of traveling to visit all these small historic old towns here in Spain, it was time to do as the Spanish people do to relax and beat the heat, 100 + degrees. So we drove about thirty minutes north of Merida to Extremadura. Aqua Libera certainly did their research before they opened this Roman House. It was built and operated like it was 2000 years ago when the Roman’s occupied this area. The day passed so quickly as we had massages and sat in the baths and relaxed under the shade. The people were so helpful even without speaking English. The way they treated us needed no language. It was a warm and universal caring that came through. Even their dogs were especially respectful as they wondered around the spa stopping to sit with each of us for a moment as we relaxed and read books we had brought with us. I will be going back for dinner some evening after 10:00 pm, of course, to experience the ancient recipes they studied to prepare here.
