  1. Those sausages look Spanish, not French; they're Castilian chorizo and Serrano ham.

  2. In some restaurants in Spain, for €60 you'd get something slightly larger, but not much more. You can find cheaper places, but the products are expensive, and if they're good quality, they don't give them away.

Sorry, but nobody calls it Chorizo de Castilla, because there are two regions in Spain that start with Castilla (Castilla-la Mancha and Castilla Y León). Hence, queso manchego or Cecina de León. I would say that, by the looks of the pink color, the ham is probably a type of prosciutto crudo from Italy. The pepperoncini next it would not be served anywhere in Spain, but they are a staple in Italy, so I'm leaning towards an Italian influence, although the cheese on the right looks more French, but I can't say for certain.

Typically in Spain you'd get a ración, which is a single item on a plate (like jamón or chorizo ibérico). That way you only get what you ordered, and not extra filler items.

Also, I googled the image, and seems to be from a restaurant in Florida, so each item could be from a different country, and my whole argument is pointless.

Good points and that chorizo looks tasty as hell. But the French reference was referring to it being called a "charcuterie" board.

This person Spanish-es. And they are right: you ain't never gonna see this on no menú del día.
