This is our journey to a Gourmet Life...

In no better words could we describe what we strive for at every opportunity.

Altimera, Hamburg's Best Tapas...



If you haven't already gathered.... we are BIG TIME fans of TAPAS!!!
It is in fact the very first thing we look for at each new place we travel to.

When we asked our Cab driver to take us to a Tapas bar we had researched , he said that he could take us there or he could take us to the BEST tapas restaurant in Hamburg!

And that is how we discovered "Altimera".cafealtimera.de

It had a fantastic, busy, vibey atmosphere with phenomonal tapas, beautiful wines and charismatic waiters!



Since we were eating Spanish food we thought it only fitting to pair it with a Spanish wine. We enjoyed a delicious 2008 Luis Canas Rioja. 

Rioja is the most famous wine area in Spain and Bodegas Luis Canas is one of the leading wineries in Rioja Alavesa.... so it was bound to be a fantastic wine!

 "Crianza" on the label of a red wine from Spain means: with a minimum of 1 year barrel-matured.
