Gathering of Friends Basket by La Tienda Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)How many of us have enjoyed delightful regional cuisine during our travels and then been disappointed when we could not replicate it after arriving home? Too often! The best we could ever do was an unsatisfying resemblance to the original. Then we discovered La Tienda!
Our choice was their Gathering of Friends Sampler - and, believe me, we forged some firm friendships with these treats! Arriving in a large round gift box the Sampler holds sliced Serrano ham (my favorite!), dry-cured Palacios chorizo, Marcona almonds, black olive pate`, anchovy stuffed olives, fire roasted piquillo peppers, piquillos stuffed with bonito tuna (my mate's favorite), `picos' bead sticks, Spanish style toothpicks and a 4"cazuela for serving.
With these fine Spanish flavors we served a full bodied red wine (everybody's favorite). A little guitar music on the player and it was Spain all over again.
We were especially pleased to receive the cazuela, which is a traditional Spanish terra cotta dish. The glazed dish is both oven and stovetop safe after an overnight soak in water. A thoughtful addition to the Sampler, and a permanent reminder of the good things that come from Spain.
La Tienda offers many taste tempting items from cheeses to sweets to wines to vegetables, even beautiful ceramics. We look forward to trying more.
