How to skip lunch
Very minor modification to the plan to skip lunch today. The miniature hip-bath of fois risotto was what swayed me. Total cost – 6 euros. This is at the Palace of FBT, the Mercado de San Anton.

The nightmare of the FBTs
“On learning the latest results from the precision travel scales”. Closely modelled on Goya’s very similar black painting. I had a nice short visit to the Prado today. It is so vast that without care a trip here becomes a pleasure-free grind. I love most of all, the Velazquez, the El Greco, and the Goya…
