Lucy and I have birthdays a day apart (me Jan 7, Lucy Jan 8) and so we always try to get together during January to for a birthday lunch. This time we went to La Casa del Tigre and it couldn’t have been better. Some fizz to start then a wonderful starter (mini brioche filled with manteca colorá), a gorgeous seasonal mushroom dish (chanterelles, níscolas, lengua de buey) with egg yolk and shaved truffles, THOSE confit patatas bravas and a super tender (monster) angus beef rib. We had a great time catching up. Wonderful wine, fab food, lovely company… a good day.

The Asociación de Guías Gastronómicos de Andalucía is into its second year and today we held the annual assembly to talk about what we’ve done over the past year, review the accounts and discuss future plans. The Sevilla City Office generously let us use one of their meeting rooms and we were able to set it up so members outside of Sevilla could join us via Zoom (we are 38 members strong now). Stay tuned for more news from us.

what a night!

A while back I had the idea of writing a post on Bitesize Sevilla about Los Chicos de Petit… all the boys who started off working at Petit Comité and then moved on to open some of the most dynamic and delicious restaurants in the city. Brothers Emilio and Álvaro are still with Petit and so we all met up there for an evening of food, wine and memories. I think it’s going to be a great story. Watch this space!
