Skala would be my choice as I like to pick understated places and be surprised. But all of them are valid places and I really hope to make a trip to Toledo to get to know it. Saluti da Verona

I still fondly recall my introduction to gazpacho Toledano at Hostel del Cardinale forty five years ago!!!

I watched this 3 times because I kept getting interrupted, and now I am hungry. Nice presentation.

You are my eyes in Spain, so I try to absorb as much as I can from your videos. You and Yoli provide a well rounded balance because you give history as well. Thank you.

Oh my goodness. How on earth do you get all that food inside you! Respect! Just love the sights and flavour of Spain. Muchas gracias! X

Well done. Was missing those videos. I’m glad you also finally had one of my favorite wine in the cheese museum *la Atalaya de la tierra*

This has been so informative and helpful. We're coming to Toledo for 3 nights and I've already spent the best part of 4 days looking at restaurants, their locations and reviews = what a mind-boggling slog! Then I found this. You serve a medal (and a medical!) for your art and heart. I'm feeling stuffed by proxy...Great job, terrfic idea.

Brilliant! Love Toledo. Need to explore these places. Thank you, James!

That was really enjoyable.....I'm FULL!

Wow.! The variety of wines, cheeses, and regional foods is mind-twisting.! After the tastings, no doubt one particular place will emerge as one's favorite but it'll take months to experiment with them all. Exploring restaurants, especially in a city which is famous for its cuisine, must be really hard. Good thing we benefit from an expert that narrows it down to a precious few.! Thank you, sir.!

What an amazing trip

I was already so impressed with your former Toledo video visit and all the impressive historical sites. It is the reason why Toledo is high on my list of places to visit here in Spain. I seemed to be drawn to Bar Ludeña and the last fusion restaurant and will check them out when I go. I am shocked that you ate so many hearty dishes in quick succession. It’s a good thing that you run for exercise. I would also like to note that you managed well on your own, though I still would like to have seen Yoly there as I know she loves to taste food along with you. Great video and I will definitely drink their regional wines. Thanks!

That's a hard job you got there. Time away from the family to go have some tapas and wine. Thanks for taking the hit for the team on this one!

Thanks for the tapas trail around Toledo. I especially like Bar Skala. I love manchego cheese also. I don't know how you managed to eat so much🤭

All looked amazing, I think the choux pastry with bull tail and chocolate was a winner.

Great to see you back! All the best to your family.

Absolutely brilliant! Am going to do a tour with your company in September

You never disapoint with thee amazing videos!

Would be interesting to see a video in Burgos 🤔

Thank you so much for including Mr. Creosote, LOL. I tend to like the funky places with great food - that would be Bar Ludena and the 2nd to last place you visited. I also love Manchego, so that would be a stop as well.

Hi James, thanks a lot for the great video and all the hard work you're doing for us!

Wonderful video James! I am headed to Spain in January with students to teach a course on the history of al-Andalus; we start in Toledo, and stay at Alfonso VI - it grows on you. Looking forward to trying some of your recommendations.

Always Love your videos! We need more of these!! You’re back in the roads again and this time, solo! Stay safe and keep going!

Very, very nice!!! Thank you for the tour and suggestions!

We visited Toledo for the first time during the last week in November and had three great meals. The amount of wild game on the menus was a pleasant surprise. The city was very quiet. (We felt like we had the Alcazar all to ourselves and walked right into the cathedral with no wait.) The most disappointing thing was not being able to find a quiet place for coffee. We had no luck in that respect. Love the channel. Looking forward to your next video.

nice to see you back doing what you do best .hello from sweden

Loved this video. Classic!

thanks for showing us Toledo! was there for a short "tour" visit in 1993...loved it! Wow! those streets and the ambience, and the food and wine. I WANT to visit Spain again after watching your show!

When we visited Toledo we couldn't believe how many museums it had. And loads of swords. We visited Sentos in Alicante recently and absolutely loved their modern takes on tapas. Cathy and Kevs x

Toledo has always been an easy, fun day trip from Madrid, but you're right, we've never been to impressed with the food there. Thank you for putting this together! Now, we have some places to try out on our next visit to Toledo!

James you always brighten my day when I watch your videos. But this one was the best.

It looked you enjoyed it all looks gorgeous

Visiting Spain soon and Toledo is on the list. Going through many of your videos. Thanks for the wealth of information! Can't wait!

Now I am hungry hahahahha great video as always! Definitely will rewatch soon, because I haven't been to Toledo since 2019 and it's a city I love, so I would love to do this kind of tour you did!

That was really good tour!

Those bulls tail choux look amazing 🤩 I’m gonna make that at home

Stopping there in September on my motorcycle tour through Spain and can't wait. I'm going to try some of those places. Good video, cheers.

we can't wait to come back

I'm so hungry right now. Some of those dishes look delicious.

Yum, gracias

Great video thanks!

You and your family are great

They all looked good and I think day trips from Madrid is something you should do more!

Omg that's a lot!! Yum

Congratulations you ever extends a very good foods in Spain, again congratulations.

Love your videos. We're going to be in Madrid and toledo in march

Great video James! I visited Toledo many moons ago and recall great food and incredible architecture. I like eating small meals about every two hours when I’m in Spain, sort of takes me back!😁

I visited Toledo between Xmas and New Year a few years ago and was shocked at how busy it was! Great food and so much history there, so maybe I shouldn't have been surprised.

Love Bar Skala❤ Absolutely fantastic food

Wow 😍 😍 😍 love.

Hello my friend. Just did Toledo and Madrid. Tried several dishes at several places you ate at. From the bombas in Toledo to Alberto’s Rabo and the Cocina at La Bola. Fantastic. Thanks for the top tips! 👍😎🍺 🇪🇸

I’m guessing your next videos will be from Rehab!! 🤣😂😅 I’m so impressed with your effort! CHAMPION!!!

Excellent

What a fun time in Toledo

Love your life, James haha. Saludos desde Helsinki!

We’re on our way! Thanks.

thanks for sharing James. Yery good video. Would also be curious how a Madrid tour from Yoly look like while you are in Toledo. So may be it is interesting for young mothers in Madrid where you can go with babies and have an nice day with friends and their babies as well

Intense eating.. looks great .. unfortunately I only stayed a day-trip before having to fly home. Hope to re-visit Toledo. that old center and some of it's hills and street stones will wear a person out. Great video.

Great video with all that fantastic food, I would be asking... dónde está el baño

I guess I should not have watched this before having dinner here in the US...now too hungry! Can't wait to visit Toledo in May. James - will you be listing the places you went to in the notes section? Many thanks again

You have convinced me! Toledo is the place to go! Madrid? What's that?

Lucena would be for me!👍

Cocktail on the house... someone's been bribed !!! :-)

Nice video James. I am just imaging how all that food tasted.

Great video. We are going for Christmas. We have a little dog and would love to know recommendations for the best place with outside terraces.

All the places look amazing, but i would love to go to La Orza just to try the game meat dishes - they look very rich - and try some regional flavors. Great tips as always! Thank you so much for the video, James! Can't wait to be back in Spain! Greetings from Brazil :)

Coffee in Toledo must be from Il Cappuccino. Coffee usually just dissappointed me, when we visited Spain this autumn. But a friend gave us the tip to fetch one from Il Cappuccino. A tiny place in the middle of Toledo, which only sells coffee. I swear, this coffee alone makes up all the bad coffees I had!

We just booked Toledo we arrive in Madrird next week we also have a youtube channel called a couple of kiwis. So nice to hear ypur voice

James - yuuuummmms! Toledo may not be a gastronomic destination, but I had the best croquetas of my life there (good goo factor, bursting with flavour). Delicious extras that may or may not have been part of my order, an unbelievably good local wine; also loved the casual friendliness of the staff. A great meal in a teeny tiny unassuming place - will share the resto name once I locate it again! I appreciate a gamut of restos from old/traditional to new and liked all your stops. Barrio leans to my kind of food, but man, the others looked pretty delicious. Thank you!

I ate a lovely sopa castellana in Toledo, as part of the menu del dia. I don’t know how it was compared to other restaurants, but I really liked it although the texture was a liitle unusual.

I'll check out Bar Skala in Toledo in 3 weeks on my next trip to Spain. I'll be staying in Malaga, Cadiz, Caceres, Toledo, Los Alcazares and Nerja before heading back to Malaga. Spain has to be the best country in the world for Pork dished which I love. Can't wait to try pork Cheeks again in Andalucia. Another great video, cheers from Canada.

Good review of some of my home city's restaurants and bars!!! for next time there arw some good restaurants and bars outside the old city's walls (Toledo is not only the old city) that are highly recommended such as El Peñon (at the feet of the walls) or El Telón and La Masia in Santa Barbara neighborhood (the one where train station is near to) or some good bars and restaurants in Santa Maria de Benquerencia (also known in Toledo as El Polígono), Buenavista, San Antón-Av Europa, Santa Teresa or El Valle/Cigarrales neighborhoods

I forgot to mention Palencia de Lara, it's next to a wonderful bakery and has two different sections, a fancy classical restaurant but also a bar where you can eat some nice tapas!

You should have shown the exact wines you've been taking. Next time, please, give us the list for improving the information you give. Thank you!
