Not many people could get me out of my comfy chair (and out of my pyjamas) for an impromptu meet up on a chilly November evening, but an unexpected message from Jorge Guitian did the trick. He was stuck in town overnight when, returning from a job in Cádiz his flight home was cancelled, so of course I had to take him to Augurio. Just for a light snack and a quick catch up, and then he was off again. Sorry for the wonky photo Jorge, caught you off guard  (he’s actually quite a handsome devil, folks).

Missing are pics of the anchovy with blue cheese butter  and the crispy corn tortilla with butterfish ceviche, but here we have the carrillada and manitas ravioli in foie sauce, a beef rib taco with pickled veg and guacamole, and papaya marinated in oloroso, with sage and miso, toasted sponge cake and hazelnut ice cream. It really was a lovely surprise. Jorge is a dear friend and I don’t get to see him often enough. Hasta la próxima!
