Cobbled streets & sherry bars

A couple of hours spent wandering through the narrow cobbled streets of Jerez in search of the perfect rustic tapas bar and sherry bodeguita. We were not disappointed. A glass of amontillado or Pedro Ximenez for just a euro and a tapa of sheep's milk cheese and artichoke with anchovies.  The next bar we moved onto Rioja at 1.90 euros and modern tapas trendily presented on slate tiles. Fresh tuna & gamba balls in a divine sauce mopped up with fresh crusty bread. Then a long tempura stick of avocado and gambas with a curry alioli. Different and delicious. Ended up in a tiny plaza underneath the orange trees and in the shadow of an ancient church and it's stunning oak door. A play was unfolding before our eyes in the adjacent church square on a balmy Autumn evening. On our walk we came across little stages set up for autumn music events dotted in the plazas so bar folk could sit and enjoy the mellow tunes wafting across the square.
