tata pila

The number of people that I’ve met first as clients on my tapas tours and then who, well, just keep coming back, continues to grow. And the wonderful part about that is that we do end up becoming friends. Like the other night with Steve & Julie (far left) who have now been here a few good times, and Roma (far right) who is on her second visit to Sevilla. In between are Neil & Maria (friends of S & J).

We all met up for a drink, which led to a small tapeo, including pringá and finishing up at one of my favourite new places Tata Pila. Poor Roma had to catch an early flight and we kept her up way too late, but a wonderful time was had by all. And now I want them to come back. xx

Twitter strikes again! My pal Rachel @R_McCormack put me in touch with Pritesh @luvfoodluvdrink and Tareena @TareenaMakeUp when she saw them looking for some Sevilla info on Twitter. I was booked with tours all week but sent them a nice list of fab tapas bars to try out. Then on their last day in town we met up for a quick tapeo, which left me with two new lovely London friends (who may end up becoming lovely Spain friends). I hope so! p and t (1) p and t (2)

wlt meeting

Okay, let’s meet at 7.30 for a quick We Love Tapas meeting…

… which somehow ended up finishing after several bars sometime after midnight. This might have something to do with our “office” being located at the always amazing La Azotea in Barrio Santa Cruz. And here is our fab Ania pouring orange wine in a classic bar next to my old house in calle Mateos Gago. Look out for more developments with WLT. It was a very productive evening. I seriously have the Best Team Ever.

sherry sunday (1)What better way to spend a Sunday afternoon than with new friends enjoying amazing sherries paired with tasty tapas. Thanks to Twitter (once again) I got to meet Paddy @vineinspiration and Lorna @styleisleIRL and took them out on a Sherry & Tapas Tour. Not that Paddy needed any “educating” as he is accomplished wine blogger and specialises in sherry. Which is actually how we “met” on Twitter. Anyhow, Paddy & Lorna were on their way to the Vendimia (wine harvest) in Jerez but stopped off for a couple of days in Sevilla first. And it turns out they will be back in October because Paddy will be taking the Sherry Educator course with me! Small world.

This is only a sampling of what we got up to. It was so much fun “talking shop” with people who share my sherry passion. Looking forward to meeting up again in October.
