sevilla, friends, tapas, birthday

I managed to squeeze in one more Birthday Lunch on Saturday, making a grand total of seven in all. Not bad! Paul had been in (and around) town over the past week with his daughter Molly and her husband Alex, also visiting Cádiz and Jerez. It was starting to look like I wouldn’t see them due to weather travel disruptions, etc but then on their last day we found time to meet up for a quick lunch at El Manijero (and also so Paul could pick up his L’Armanaque) before they caught their bus to Málaga. And so now that January is over that’s definitely all the birthday fun until next year.

sevilla, friends, tapas

After seven long years these two lovelies are back in town. Briefly. They’ve been spending the month in Málaga but popped up to Sevilla for a quick visit. And what a time we had… a belated birthday lunch at Augurio. A perfect way to spend a cold, rainy January afternoon, with good friends, good food, and some rather spectacular wines…

Thanks so much for coming up for a visit and for treating me to a magnificent meal. Glad you got to meet Carmen too. We were a trio of mandonas but somehow Steven survived. Come back soon! xx

Carmen, Steven & Julie

Jim & Nick at Manolo Cateca

Mexico-based food writer Nick (Nicolas Gilman) and I first met ten years ago in London during a mad whirlwind gastronomic weekend hosted by Jeffrey Merrihue (formerly Foodie Hub now Xtreme Foodies) though we barely remember as there were so many people and so many places. Anyhow, we reconnected this year on Substack and this week he and his partner Jim are in town so we got together for a little sherry and a snack at Manolo Cateca. It was lovely meeting them both and I hope we can get together again before they leave.

friends, sevilla, sherry, tapas

I first met Melissa Cole (aka London’s Queen of Beer) back in 2016 in London, and we last saw each other (also in London) at an event at the Spanish Embassy. This week she and her husband Ben are in town for a “birthday trip” and today we went out on a slow-paced crutches friendly tapas tour. Basically three bars close together in my barrio. I’d love to do this more often but these bars don’t take bookings and are usually jam packed (well, they took bookings for me today, but I wouldn’t want to have to call in favours like that too often). Anyhow, what a fabulous time we had. Lots of good food, wine and chat. Hope they’ll be back soon.
