A big thank you to ‪@Vessi‬ for sponsoring this video! I and the Putt family are extremely proud of their daughter Carissa who is representing Team USA at the ‪@worldtriathlon‬ held in Pontevedra Spain. I get to tag along and travel to this magnificent destination in the North Wester part of Spain. Imagine, thirteen thousand visitors and athletes descending to this city of a thousand beaches! Lots of people, lots of sights and of course, lots of great meals. And I have self appointed myself as Carissa official meal advisor for the triathlon and I certainly took my position seriously by searching out the great places to eat!
We started off with one of the most amazing Breakfast buffets I've seen and explored many many tapas and meals. One thing the struck me was the generosity and hospitality of the Spanish people. Plates and plates of fantastic seafood and meats, many of which were offered just so that we can try, and glasses and glasses of spirits, wine and beer that never seem to stop. A little against Carissa's meal plan but if you don't tell, I won't tell. Thank you for joining me on this travel adventure and if you vacation in Spain, I hope some of our experiences can inspire you to explore, travel, and eat!

Tim: you are so, so funny! The Putz family are not foodies & certainly are not interested in eating like us foodies! I think they are very focused on a diet for athletes not surgery, spicy, fatty foods! But the tapas selection was delightful!

Oh yes, I got an earful from Carissa's mom after seeing her meals and the drinking before the triathlon 🤦🏻‍♂️😉

Great video Tim. Curious, what do you do for a living?

[@isabelherrero8059]

Me encantan tus vídeos. Sólo quiero aclararte que en España las croquetas van rellenas con bechamel, no con puré de patatas. Y a esa bechamel se le puede añadir: jamón, huevo cocido, pollo, bacalao, mejillones, gambas, camarones, espinacas, etc. Cuánto más fluida sea la bechamel mejor será la croqueta. Gracias por tus vídeos

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Thank you so much. I was wondering what the filling was… the béchamel was wonderful.

HelloHello Tim How did the your friends daughter do in the race?

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Thank you so much for asking! She finished strong, and in a triathlon there's always a couple of things that you can't prepare for like the environment and the equipment. A little bit of trouble with the equipment, mainly that bike, but she did very well 😀

Every buffet you go to you are always skipping the fruits and vegetables.

[@lizzy9975]

Spain, local tabacs and they serve Nespresso pods at the buffet! 🤦🏼‍♀️ I might add, all that meat, cheese and tomatoes - needs red wine. Not coffee.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Ohhh, what I'm slowly learning is that there is too much wine in Spain 😉

Athletes are not suppose to be eating processed foods. I don't care how pretty it looks on display.

Annoying? Just because you did not get a small plate? Do you see yourself how you eat? It is always for 5 people or more so big plate fits you, so dont get annoyed because you did not see a small plate. Look at you, your plate is full again why looked for small plate. Be real!!!

LOMO is the one you didn't know the name for. In Iberian cuisine, the lomo is a special feature prized for its unique flavor. lomo is a sausage made from pork loin. These are two tissues that lie on either side of the spine, below the ribs. The loin offers a flesh that stands out for its tenderness and finesse. It has virtually no fat. The loins are treated with salt which allows them to dry out by absorbing the water and to prepare them for ripening. The lomo is then marinated according to recipes specific to each producer. Depending on the ingredients used, it can have a very pleasant spicy taste. The sweet pepper (paprika) brings a slight touch of spiciness to enhance the flavor of the lomo and delight your taste buds. Garlic, pepper, bay leaf and other ingredients complete the recipe to enhance the aromatic notes of the lomo.

[@acerrubrum5749]

"Cava" is just a Catalan word for "cave" or "cellar." And while it may not sound fancy, this Spanish sparkling wine has become the go-to drink for celebrations across Spain and around the world. Cava is Spain's best-known sparkling wine, produced mainly in the region of Catalonia.

[@gidgitvonlarue9972]

No wonder the Spanish are so much healthier than Americans, us Aussie's and British - cheese for breakfast - not sugary cereals or big fry ups.
