Spanish Obession With Jamon ...

... one of countless stores in Spain specializing in all things delicious that oink, namely Jamon Serrano and Iberico. The name Ibericus conjures up images of Kirk Douglas as a gladiator in Spartacus - but instead of slaying other gladiators and Roman soldiers, he uses his instruments of death to carve up paper-thin slices of porcine perfection. They should make a prequel to Gladiator, where the climactic scene is a duel-to-the-death between Maximus and Spartacus. But just as the fight begins, they drop their weapons and instead settle their differences over a bottle of Rioja and a plate of beautiful tapas that heavily features jamon. I'd pay to see that.
