At last!!! l finally got to meet Ruben @sherrynotes with his friend Joeri @thewhiskyjury at La Azotea when they passed through town this evening. I’ve “known” Ruben for years online due to our mutual love of sherry – he is a fellow Sherry Educator, as well as the author an amazing sherry blog – so it was a real treat to meet up and have a chat in person. Thanks for a lovely evening guys! 😘

So this was lovely! The other day a mutual Twitter/Instagram pal hooked Katie @bowlandandbay and me up as she and her partner Paul were in town for a few days. We met today – their last day – for a quick sherry at Manolo Cateca, which ended up segueing into a fun sherry filled afternoon, finishing up at Palo Cortao for lunch. Another great social media connection (I still love Twitter for this!) and new foodie friends.
Katie runs food adventures in Lancashire UK so if you’re in the area look her up.
balbuena y huertas

Not my usual Wednesday! José Luis Pastrana, chef at brand new Balbuena y Huertas in the soon to be opened Cavalta Boutique Hotel (5 Star GL), got in touch on Instagram to ask if I would like to try their tasting menu. And so after the usual clarification that I don’t accept invitations in exchange for publicity (fine by José Luis, he said he preferred it that way) I asked pal Fiona Flores if she wanted to join me. Lately we’ve become quite a good team when it comes to visiting new restaurants, hotels, etc.
The meal, as you can see below, was quite spectacular and lunch lasted until almost 6 pm, after which we were given a tour of the hotel, which is set to open in a couple of weeks. The six-course tasting menu is actually very good value at 38€ (53€ with wine pairing). The meat course was swapped with tuna for pescatarian Fiona and were given a few cocktails too, with and without alcohol. It was a fabulous experience and so I am happy to do a review for them soon on my website. Have a look…
