Kalé has been back in Sevilla this month (she was last here in 2019). This is her final week and I’m going to miss her. Kalé was one of the first lodgers I had in my second Casa Azahar, close to 25 years ago (!!!). Hard to believe we’ve known each other so long, and that she has met ALL of my cats, well other than Morcilla, but will try to remedy that before she leaves.  Meanwhile, Kalé has been helping me out with Tapas Research and it looks like we will be able to squeeze in one more lunch this weekend.

Lucy and I have birthdays a day apart (me Jan 7, Lucy Jan 8) and so we always try to get together during January to for a birthday lunch. This time we went to La Casa del Tigre and it couldn’t have been better. Some fizz to start then a wonderful starter (mini brioche filled with manteca colorá), a gorgeous seasonal mushroom dish (chanterelles, níscolas, lengua de buey) with egg yolk and shaved truffles, THOSE confit patatas bravas and a super tender (monster) angus beef rib. We had a great time catching up. Wonderful wine, fab food, lovely company… a good day.
