Have a Seat at the Oldest Restaurant in the World

Botín Restaurant has kept the flame burning for the past 293 years … literally. Ever since the doors opened in 1725, the oven has been sizzling continuously, never to be extinguished. According to deputy manager Luis Javier Sànchez Alvarez, the oven is the crown jewel of the restaurant and the fundamental element of their most popular dish, the roast suckling pig. The recipes used today have been passed down from generation to generation, keeping the legacy of these traditional dishes alive. With the honor of being the oldest restaurant in the world, Alvarez hopes to keep the doors open for centuries to come.

@@Booklat1 Actually, ironically the "Spanish flu" did not originate in Spain, It so happens that the Iberian Nation was the only neutral large European power during the war, which means it had a less restrictive press. so it was practically the first to report major outbreaks of the virus. hence why people started calling it the Spanish flu.. so, no it probably did not close, since there were no major lockdowns in cities back then. ohm and the virus probably originated from the US mas conscription military camps in the midwest.

That is not true, it is not at all the oldest restaurant in the world. The St. Peter Stiftskeller in Salzburg Austria was established in the year 803 and is still open.

The oldest restaurant I’ve been to was l’Auberge Nicolas Flamel in Paris & that has been in business since 1407..!! Situated in the Marais district. The food was wonderful & for those who read Harry Potter, you may remember the character of Nicolas Flamel... Well he was a real person. A famous alchemist in his time...!!^_^!!

Xbox: Tvrsa oh this is true. same. Lol never mind 😩

[@lich6241]

Yeah that wine is so old it's rancid for sure

[@chewie2055]

Simply Sasuke Aging changes wine, but does not categorically improve it or worsen it. Fruitiness deteriorates rapidly, decreasing markedly after only 6 months in the bottle. Due to the cost of storage, it is not economical to age cheap wines, but many varieties of wine do not benefit from aging, regardless of the quality. So it is probably vinegar by now

[@alejandroojeda1572]

@@lich6241 It Will only go rancid if no care IS put into mantaining It. Spanish wine and by extension european wine IS closed with Cork caps. The problem IS those caps only last so long, depending on the quality of the Cork they can last years, but obviously not 300. So you have to change the CAP every so often or It Will disintigrate and let too much oxygen inside which Will sour the wine....you'll basically get vinegar.

Sobrino de Botin actually holds the Guinness world record as the oldest restaurant. Mainly because its still in its original building with the same interior from the 18th century.

[@yoruichisan19]

@@geraldsouthwood So I guess the correct phrasing would be "oldest restaurant still in the original building" not oldest restaurant with the same idea of a restaurant (run by probably the same family for a long time), in the same place, not the orginal building". So, physical vs. ideology, probably.
