Buenos Dias my friends welcome to day two here in Alicante.
We have lots to show you in this video but to get started we have stopped to get some
breakfast into much needed coffee don't forget to hit that like button and subscribe to our
Youtube channel let's go.
hola amigos, good morning we're stopping to eat some quick breakfast before we go up on
a little hike this is what they call Russian salad so i think it's like tuna salad with
um
pretty much tastes like tuna salad
a good protein snack
delicious
so we climbed up the stairs we didn't make it to the top because we weren't prepared
but we got to the great view point look at the beautiful view of Alicante and you can
see the santa barbara castle oh wait did you see it this is Santa Barbara castle instead
of hiking up to the Santa Barbara castle we decided to explore the neighborhood called
Santa Cruz you can see the beautiful city view here too these narrow streets whitewashed
houses with vibrant colors were just so beautiful
There is a cute restaurant, do you want to get a drink?
Oh yeah we can.
Alright, so, we're in this a little cute neighborhood called Santa Cruz, um we found this little
spot to have a drink so we're just getting some water.
It's pretty sunny and beautiful day out so i got some drink so we'll have a good have
a quick drink enjoy the weather here we are at the Alacante
cool little market.
and we came downstairs for the fish.
and Katana that's what i want.
all right we are here just outside of the market you can see it over my shoulder.
Grab a quick beer waiting for our sushi from the sushi spot inside of the market, they
get all their fish directly from the market so it's supposed to be super fresh... so we've
got another 10 minutes before it's ready I'll show you what it looks like.
All right i honestly don't remember is last time i had a good sushi, and i love good sushi
so I'm very excited to try this, um... i believe it's salmon and this this I'm not exactly
sure but i believe it's in a red snapper, so I'm gonna go for salmon first put some
uh a little bit of wasabi in there dip it in some soy sauce
oh yeah!
The salmon just melts in your mouth!
Very good yeah now try the red snapper i think it's rock snapper let me show you it looks
like it has like a red color on it so... oops the rice broke.
Mmm, so soft, it has a smoky flavor so it's like very smoky it's like nicely um, what
do you call that, charred so it's delicious some ginger...oh it's windy
Very good, i think it's definitely worth a try.
Next, let's move on to the seared tuna, look at that beautiful thing.
All right, I'm sure things are not blowing away since it's windy.
Yummy, mmm, tender, soft, although it's seared on the outside it still melts in your mouth,
great flavor, I'm eating all this by myself.
All right the sushi was devoured, really good, um high quality fish they get all the fish
right here from the marketplace so that's all you'll see on the if you haven't seen
in the video lots of fish even whole tunas, and um everything sold right here, so worth
uh, worth to stop but we're still hungry.
Yeah i would say it was it wasn't definitely not the best sushi that i ever had, but, being
in Spain it's like so hard to find the real sushi place.
This will do, i mean this was i said it was really good enough, definitely worth a try
um, it's a little pricey, but you kind of have to expect it when it comes to sushi.
But yeah, we're still hungry, it wasn't very much food so we're gonna find more uh lunch
here.
So price wise i think the white fish was seven euros for two pieces, and the salmon was six
euros for two pieces, and then the tuna, um, i got a half uh the portion instead of the
whole portion and i think i was 12 euros.
So anyways, we're still hungry and thirsty, on-wards we go... to the next place.
All right guys directly down here there is a marina, there you can see.
it's just a little bit of construction going on but it's so that's where the uh where the
marina is, and you see here look at this humongous tree this beautiful park right here.
um i believe it's called the plaza de.
We have some restaurants here, and there's some more seats out there, outside, and let
me show you what's around from this corner.
Okay from here Carrer San Francisco, as you can see look at these giant mushrooms, this
is a pretty fun place to walk around.
The name of street is actually literally called mushroom street.
All right we are at el garage bar it's a bar directly across from as you see the park with
these big beautiful trees over here.
We have some more restaurants under the shade, we picked the sun so, um may as well get a
little baked you know.
But we ordered some croquetas um, and some other sides so we'll share them with you once
we get them.
Tapas came.
So, more Russian salad i didn't realize has it's actually on top of the Russian salad,
I ordered it because of the anchovy.
Okay they're quite the shape, I'm going to take a bite ,um, oh boy more Russian salad
but, it's more like i want to taste this anchovy.
It's our third Russian salad of the day what do you think?
Well i didn't eat the second one, we were served, a second one, but i didn't eat it
i mean they actually pretty well go together surprisingly...
so it's good but...
i may try this anchovy.
i love it.
There's different kinds here in Spain there's one with the vinegar base, this one's like
in a marinade and olive oil so, very tasty salty, goes perfectly, with beer.
Our croquetas have arrived, we have one with octopus beautiful and we have one with the
Jamon Iberico iIm gonna taste, so i love octopus, pulpo, so I'm gonna try this look how pretty
it is, I have a little fish eggs, uh, looks like a little bit of a seaweed, I'm not sure
what this pink sauce is... oh i think it has a beet in it, very good presentation so, let's
give it a try.
Wow, it's very cheesy, to be honest, I don't taste a lot of pulpo, but with this whole
cheesiness or the beet sauce i think they go very well together.
It's overall, it's good but I personally would have liked a little more bigger fruitful chunks,
but it's delicious.
this is the jamon Iberico...
and then this is an
empanada.
Mmmm.
Very flavorful okay look look at this bravas i got it with cheese.
So it's not this typical bravas but can you see down in there it looks like it's swimming,
the potatoes are in a cheese bath look at this oh my gosh,
that's like a blue cheese bath.
Wow.
We are here at the beach in Alicante.
All right right here next to the beach we have another beautiful park looks like it's
called soho park,
and inside here you have a little, just a little bar surrounded by the trees
having our gin and tonic
so cheers
Hodu found the stick

Hodu
This tree is grown so much, they have actually have to put the support in here, wow

okay so josh is about five seven, look how tall it is
The next day
Hola amigos, it's our last day in Alicante um our last stop is going to be the Aligante
Brewery so they don't open until like an hour later, so we are sitting here.
Um, there's some sort of protest going on right around the market which is right there,
so you'll hear some background but we're sitting here in the cafe um having our cerveza
as usual and waiting for the brewery to open.
Hola amigos.
Hola.
We are here and the brewery that we just talked about, so they're finally open.
Um this is our last day in Alicante, we got an hour before our train leaves, so, yeah
it's about a 10-minute walk to the train station from here, and uh thought we would it's about
a one-minute walk from the market um so we thought we'd stop and have a beer.
Yeah, so, this is a porter beer that i got they have and Josh got IPA or IPA and they
also gave us this little tasters, free taster, service.
And as usual, again, Russian salad, fourth Russian salad, you can never get away from
