You are right.

You are right that Spanish food in the US tends to be a bit pricey for the average american. That can be attributed to the fact that some of the dishes contain items that are somewhat costly such as seafood. Some restaurants have to import food items especially if the are located far from distributo...

What I find interesting about all of the history between Asturians and the Dupont family is that Dupont built a fairly large plant in Asturias. It is located by Cancienes in Corvera. I saw it being constructed during my summer trips to visit my grand parents. It provided lots of needed jobs when it ...
