jm and reyes

Believe it or not, these are two friends that I didn’t meet on Twitter! Juan Manuel and Reyes are the heart and soul of the Vineria San Telmo, one of my favourite tapas bars in Sevilla. And well, that’s how I first met Juan, by being a regular customer. Later when I started my Sevilla Tapas Tours the Vineria became one of the stops (depending on the tour) and we began working together too. Then Reyes, who for years had been responsible for the amazing Vineria desserts, opened her own storefront bakery Gollerías, now my “go to” place if I ever need a cake for a special event. Anyhow, ran into them both at the Vineria the other day and took this photo. Seriously two of the nicest people you could ever meet and I’m very lucky to be able to call them my friends.  🙂

mas que postres
A typical Saturday used to be going out late morning to do the weekly grocery store and market shopping, then maybe stopping in for a quick pringá and a beer on the way home for lunch… it’s been ages since I’ve done that. Another thing I used to like doing on Saturdays was RESEARCH. And so, as I knew I’d be seeing a demo by pastry chef Manu Jara at next week’s Andalucía Sabor, I thought I’d finally head over to Triana to check out the new cake and pastry shop he opened there in the spring. I came across it quite by accident one night just after Semana Santa and have been meaning to get back to it ever since.

Well, one thing led to another and I also ended up in Triana market, marvelling at how it had gone all gourmet in the past – what? – three months? So many changes. And so instead of catching up on my massive backlog of reviews and updates for Sevilla Tapas I ended up creating more work for myself by coming home with a huge whack of photos and three new reviews to write. But it was a lovely Saturday morning and afternoon out. And I now have a new “Bakery and Pastry Shop” section for Sevilla Tapas. You can read the review (and see more yummy pics) here: Más Que Postres on Sevilla Tapas
