So there is this tapas & sherry pairing event going on in Sevilla, from the 1st – 17th of November, during which 62 bars will offer a select tapa paired with a sherry or manzanilla wine. And I am totally ON THIS. Of course visiting 62 bars in just over two weeks is only slightly impossible so it’s a good thing at least a dozen of the bars on the list aren’t places I’m interested in. And to ease both the wallet and liver, Peter is helping me out. This means that we go to each bar and share both the tapa and the sherry, so – for example – we can visit four places and end up having just 2 drinks and 2 tapas but 4 different experiences and can judge which pairings work best at more places.
You can follow all the action on azahar’s Sevilla blog and also on my Instagram.

One day I really must get started on one of a projects I’ve had on the drawing board for, well, a couple of years. Which is to create an album of my favourite public toilets in Sevilla. For example, this one. Love the sink! Not sure how practical it would be for home use, but it totally works in a sherry and flamenco bar.

Quick lunch visit today with my friend Victor @WeLoveMalaga. He’s been “on tour” for 38 days straight with various groups, going from Málaga to Ronda, Madrid, Granada, Sevilla, Lisbon and back again. Last time he zipped through Sevilla I was busy with Kate and David and we couldn’t meet up, so it was great to spend a brief lunchtime catching up and enjoying some lovely food from the newly opened La Azotea Santa Cruz. And of course now I want to go back to Málaga… but first Lisbon I think.
How’s your Monday going?
