So I went to the school cafeteria for lunch today and decided to order from the Menú del Día instead of a la carte items. And so far when I've gone out to get food and just sort of ordered at random its been okay. Tried some new things and been fine.
Today I ordered callos de Madrileños for the main dish--translation: tripe or stomach lining stew. I have to say I like to try new things and all and tend to be of the opinion that if you tell me after I eat it then it won't gross me out.
Callos is not for me and looking it up after I tasted it was an even worse idea. The waiter noticed I didn't like it and asked me if I wanted something else instead so I ordered codillo. AKA knee. I asked what it was before ordering this time and figured it would be worth a try. It tasted good enough but I have to say having an entire knee with bones and everything put on my plate kinda freaked me out after the tripe. Aside from my lunch experience today though I love msot of the food I've tried but needless to say I don't know if I'm going to be as comfortable ordering blindly for awhile.
