Went to see Vinx last night at Cafe Wha?, and while surrounded by a small crowd in a less than ideal venue, he as usual was pitch perfect and with a better live voice than any other singer I have witnessed. Hit up Las Ramblas for dinner, for great pinxtos (including octopus, frog legs, mussels). The co-owner treated us to Abadía da Cova, Licor de Hierbas (herb liquor), which at about 33% alcohol by volume is a distilled sugar cane based spirit instead of like wine grapes based grappa; the Abadia smacks of a fresh herb garden, seasoned with 20 different herbs and spices. Really unique flavor, served as an after dinner digestif.Saturday, March 07, 2009
