restaurante botin

this in from an alert reader traveling in spain:  the restuarante botin.  the oldest restaurant in the world, botin is just steps away from madrid's plaza mayor.

it was hemingway's favorite hangout, as he was friends with the owners who let him hang out upstairs to write before meeting friends for lunch--usually the roast pig special.

he loved the place so much he set his final scene of "the sun also rises" in the botin.
