A repeat visitor to Spain (seven trips, he said) insisted "for drinks, go to a Spanish bar," so we went to "LA COCINA DE GASTON" for authentic Spanish cuisine near Ochanomizu Station—within walking distance of Palaceside Building. A small building's basement, a calm shop with an restless Spanish owner. Goat cheese, marinated anchovies—prices very reasonable. Wine unlike Bordeaux or Burgundy—hard to explain, but "a grown-up taste," "hmm, sexy"—does that convey it?
