Although I have met up with Phoebe & Oli a few times while visiting London, and they have both been to Sevilla separately, this is the first time we have all met up together here. Yay!

It was a lovely day starting off with – what else? sherry and jamón – which led to a lunchtime tapeo (Las Teresas, La Barra del Inchausti, Palo Cortao). Finishing around 5 pm we took a break before meeting up again at 8.30. The plan had been to introduce them to Esteban and his fabulous vermutería Yo Soy Tu Padre and then leave them to have dinner elsewhere, but somehow one vermouth led to another, and we finished up eating rabbit ribs at La Azotea at 11 pm. Like you do.

These guys are doing a Spain roadtrip before they head back to London, pack up, and move to Australia, where Phoebe is from. So I guess that means no more London meet ups, but they assure me they will be back to Spain again before too long.

I mean, what are the odds? Got an email the other day from a guy called Chris who said he’d been in town for the past few weeks and that he’d been making good use of my Sevilla Tapas website. He mentioned that he was Canadian and that he was curious as to how another Canadian ended up in Sevilla, so we agreed to meet up for a tapita. Well. Turns out he’s not only Canadian, but also from Winnipeg. AND that he used to go see my ex-husband’s band Houndog back in the day. PLUS he lived in Toronto the same time I was there and probably went to a restaurant where I was working at the time.

He’s also a historian, so I told him how I used to have lots of historians as lodgers a few years ago. He’s been to Sevilla about seven times over the years, and no doubt will be back. Nice afternoon. 🙂

Twitter strikes again. Someone I’ve known on Twitter/Instagram for ages – Michael @renoirguides – got in touch to see if I had a tour going on Monday that his friend could join. Which I didn’t (there’s a two-person minimum), but when I found out the friend lives in Gibraltar I said I’d be happy to meet him for a drink and give him some tapas tips. What started as a quick sherry and tapita turned into an impromptu tapas tour, with Frank and I hitting four of my favourite traditional bars, including a stop at my “happy place” – Rafael’s jamón cutting station at Las Teresas. Nice day.  🙂
