A dinner that wasn't
29 de mayo, España ⋅ ☁️ 75 °F
So I had dinner here during my 2022 Camino and it was very good, so why not repeat it, right?!

Well it's now a Beer Garden (as evident) and everything is motorized.
After being told that we can sit anywhere and sitting there for a good clip of time, we were somewhat rudely told "to go to machine" to place an order and then observed one of them "robot carts" delivering food to the other folk we just decided to leave 😞🥲Leer más
