An incredible tapas bar in Granada Spain, about 4 blocks from the front of the Cathedral stairs, owned by a middle-aged British couple who's last name is POE and they are the probably the best absinthe fire shot drinkers and late night / early morning dance-off winners in all of Spain; if not the entire world.
