#sevilla, bitesize sevilla, spain, substack

A while back I had the idea of writing a post on Bitesize Sevilla about Los Chicos de Petit… all the boys who started off working at Petit Comité and then moved on to open some of the most dynamic and delicious restaurants in the city. Brothers Emilio and Álvaro are still with Petit and so we all met up there for an evening of food, wine and memories. I think it’s going to be a great story. Watch this space!

fluchos, shoes, spain

Trying out these Fluchos, a Spanish brand that seem to be better quality (and better priced) than Camper. I realised that the last time I bought shoes was back in 2021 (actually bought in 2019 but I didn’t wear them for two years).  Last winter I actually got by on these refurbished favourites (from 2017) but sadly the time has come to retire them. And yes, okay, I did buy these ones a couple of years ago but turned out they were just too ugly after all so I returned them.

My point is… I needed new shoes and I am hoping these ones will work out. It’s always so stressful buying shoes because of my triple EEE wide “duck feet” (narrow heels), requiring a usually quite painful breaking in period, and I never know what’s going to break first, the shoes or me, until it happens. So I am wearing these guys around the house for awhile before trying them outside. Fingers crossed.

autumn, sevilla, spain

Hobbling along I looked to my left up a side street and was stopped in my tracks by THIS. Just look at that gorgeous mackerel sky! 💙 🤍 Very autumnal though you wouldn’t know it by the temperatures, which are still above average but at least not high enough to need the AC. This is fine by me as it means I can put off the dreaded shoes & tights for a while longer. How are things where you are?
