Every Sunday they have live music, mostly played by amateur bands (including one in which my daughter&#8217;s chemistry teacher plays the guitar). This particular evening&#8217;s band included Pierre, a colleague from my office:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2011\/3alt1.jpg\" alt=\"L1004442\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>Alternate 2<\/em><br \/>\nThe band in action.

Like other social clubs at the office (Bacchus the wine club or Avalanche the ski club) it will be partly supported by the office. Hence, we must keep proper accounts and so on. On Wednesday afternoon the executive board (I am the treasurer) met at our second home, Adolfo&#8217;s bar, in a working class neighbourhood near the office, called Benalua:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2011\/3alt3.jpg\" alt=\"L1004473\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>Alternate 4<\/em><br \/>\nScrutinizing the spreadsheets I had brought along took 10 minutes, after which we concentrated on more important matters.

The food is whatever the chef decided to make that day. Everything is homemade and delicious. Today he had made (as the main course) what amounted to the Spanish version of a German dish called <em>Eisbein<\/em>. In Germany, this is a pig shank served with potatoes and sauerkraut; here, the pig shank was there but instead of sauerkraut (which the Spanish do not like) there was just cabbage. The quantity was impressive for four people, but we were equal to the task:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2011\/3alt5.jpg\" alt=\"L1004483\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>Alternate 6<\/em><br \/>\nThis is half of Adolfo&#8217;s staff, the chef, talking to a guest.
