Guess how old Peter is today? 😉 For his birthday he said he wanted to do a tapeo visiting some of his favourite bars so we ended up going to Bodeguita Romero, Casa Moreno, Casa Morales, Casa Román and Las Teresas. Ran out of time to have birthday cheesecake at Salmedina as they were closed by the time we left Teresas, but…
… on the way home we ran into my fab five star “sherry students” from Monday’s Sherry & Tapas tour and, when they found out it was Peter’s birthday, invited us to have a drink with them. Found a spot open in the Plaza Alfalfa and ended up having lovely cava in lovely company, a perfect way to end a fun birthday afternoon 🥂

So this happened. Started the day with a private sherry tasting by Bodegas La Gitana at Las Teresas (the rep had seen a post of mine on Instagram and invited me) and, since I also had a last minute tapas tour booked the clients met me at Teresas when the tasting finished. Win-win. The clients were friends of my Twitter pal (and fellow sherry educator) Ruben @sherrynotes and both the tasting and tour were great fun (and delicious too).

I feel truly blessed to know so many wonderful people here in Sevilla and Emilio at Casa Moreno is one of them. The walls of this tiny bar, tucked away behind an equally tiny abacerÃa, are festooned with handwritten notes that he has written over the years. One day I am going to go in during a quiet time and read them all, along with a sherry or two of course.

I first met Jonathan back in 2008 when he opened a little bar around the corner from my then house in Barrio Santa Cruz. And we got to be good neighbours and pals, I even helped him set up his first social media stuff. But then I moved to HELL ALLEY and we kind of lost touch. And somehow I never got back to update his bar on my website (last update October 2011!!), though I did visit him in a tiny new bar he opened with his father just off the Alfalfa, now sadly closed due to Covid.
Anyhoodle… when I was at the fab Delgado Zuleta wine event last Monday there was Jonathan! And we had a chance to talk and I found out that Bodeguita La Parihuela has expanded into a connecting building and I promised to stop by soon to check it out and try some tapitas. Which ended up being today. Gotta say I was pleased with both the new look and the menu. Jonathan hasn’t forgotten his roots and the staff, although a bit bumbly at times, were eager to please. I’ll be updating it on Sevilla Tapas as soon as possible, but for now you can see some of the tapas over here.
