A friend of mine once called and explained that he was heading to Segovia with his father who was over visiting from the United States. He needed to impress the man; this I knew because the man had been supporting my friend while he lived the willy-nilly Spanish lifestyle. I sent them to Casa Duque, Maestra Asador a longtime classic on the Segovian dining circuit. That night he called to tell me that he and his father agreed: they had just enjoyed one of the best meals of their lives. After gazpacho, which he reported was prepared at the table with a tray of fresh vegetables, they had started in on the main course, suckling pig and, recognizing his father’s sheer pleasure after the first bite, my friend broke the news: he was broke and needed money to hike the Camino de Santiago. Two months later he called again, from Santiago de Compostela, with blistered feet and a book stamped by each monastery he’d stayed at during the four-week journey.
