This weekend (Jan 31 – Feb 2) it’s food festival time again down by the river in Paseo de Colón. Another delicious collaboration between the Academia Sevillana de Gastronomía y Turismo and Hosteleros de Sevilla, with 13 bars and restaurants from Sevilla (city and province) offering their best stews and desserts, with music, cooking demos and other fun stuff. Looking forward to it!

This week our Gastro Guías enjoyed their last event until summer break, a private cooking class at Taller Andaluz de Cocina in Triana Market. And it couldn’t have been better. I first did a class with them back in 2015 and it was terrific, so when we were looking for a way to close out our first season this seemed like a fun option. And well, not only was it fun, but everyone learned a lot and we got to eat all the amazing food we prepared ourselves with a glass of wine.

What a lovely surprise to see Ishay again after… 9 years! Last time we were together was in London as part of a Foodie Hub global meet up. Ishay got in touch while I was in Jerez to say she’d be in town for a couple of days with her friend Tuanni and so last night they joined me on a tapas tour with a lovely couple from Australia. We had a great time and it was lovely to her again and catch up. Our last meal together (below) at Kitty Fisher’s in London.

First visit since our first meet up just before Covid lockdown, after knowing each other “virtually” for years, Rogene (aka Maribel) and Phil are back in town. We had a couple of great food and wine filled afternoons, a “Tribeca Tapas Tour” and then Phil’s birthday lunch at Barra Baja. Good times!

Sometimes my life doesn’t suck… especially when I get an invitation to try out the new seasonal tasting menu at Balbuena y Huerta and I get to invite my lovely friend Reyes Morales to come with me. Honestly my life and my job (one and the same) rarely suck and this is why, because of all the wonderful people I’ve met since starting my Sevilla Tapas website back in 2007. This was a very special afternoon. Check my Instagram for details.
