It’s always fun when Paul comes to town and this time we had him here for ten days! Well, I didn’t see him ALL of those days, but enough times to have plenty of good meals and good times. And just like last year he was here to help celebrate my Sevilla Anniversary, which led to this surprise from chef Javi when we went to Lalola. Anyhow, that’s it until next time, which hopefully will be in a couple of months (this time it was an unprecidented 8 months between visits!).

So we are just a week away from the first Amigo del Día campaign, called Let’s Lunch (Quedamos a Comer!), which I first mentioned to you all at the beginning of June. This is a non-profit initiative started by Chelsea Anton, with the aim of helping to promote independent bars and restaurants around the world as they begin to reopen after the Covid shutdown, and also while they recover.
The idea behind Let’s Lunch has evolved since its inception and is now simply a “challenge” to ask a friend to lunch at your favourite bar or restaurant, take photos and promote them on your social media using the following hashtags: #letslunch #quedamosacomer #amigodeldia. This is a global initiative and so you can take part anywhere you are. For some inspiration have a look at some of the places that have already registered for the event, which will tak place between July 20-30th.
If you (or someone you know) have a bar or restaurant and would like to be featured on the Amigo del Día site, there is still time to register. Meanwhile, who wants to meet me for lunch next week? 🙂
