Gazpacho is listed as a dish in the Spain guide, where the index tags it mild and vegetarian. Treat those labels as a menu translation rather than the full picture. Portion size, garnish and cooking method change from one counter to the next, and so does the price.

  • The indexed version is mild. Heat levels still vary by kitchen, so ask for chilli or sauce on the side.
