It’s actually been a while since Paul was here… last August! Usually he doesn’t leave it so long between visits, but you know, life stuff and this and that. Anyhow, he’s here now for almost ten days and yesterday we met up for lunch and – also due to this and that – our Plan A turned into Plan B and then finally Plan C (technically D as we were going to C when I spotted La Casa del Tigre and I remembered they have a new tasting menu). And so we popped our heads in and they had a free table and that’s what we did. Well, we weren’t sure at first if we would do the tasting menu but then went for it and it ended up being quite fabulous (will update the website soon). Lots of wine, chat, catching up, the usual. It’s gonna be a fun week.

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!

taller andaluz (16)

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.
