Today’s first ever Triana Tapas Tour was a resounding success, in spite of The Weather, which decided to turn very wet and a bit nasty. But we managed to mostly dodge the worst of it and had a great time visiting the market, having a picnic, and then carrying on to two very well-known bars in Triana. Looking forward to many more!

Thus began DPART (De Perdidos Al Río Tapeo) at Gourmet Experience Duque, with Silvia Flores generously pouring us some lovely wines for this first toast with myself, Annie Bennett, Eduardo Blanco and Andrew Forbes before we set out to cause trouble. More later…

The last time I saw Jane & John was four years ago in London (a hectic and happy day that included a fishy foot-nibbling session) and the last time they were in Sevilla was springtime 2005. So it was wonderful to find out that they were holidaying at the fabulous Almohalla 51 in Archidona and wanted to pop over for a visit (if you can call a 4-hour round trip train ride “popping over”). Of course a tapas tour was in order and, as you can see, we had a delicious Saturday afternoon together. Then after rooftop coffees and a stroll through the old centre it was time for them to head back to the station… come back soon!

It was a crazy busy day, starting off with catching an earlyish train to Jerez for a massive wine tasting – about 50 wineries from across Spain were showing off their best. This was followed by this fabulous lunch you can see up there, after which I had a bit of time to catch up with my friend Sylvie who happened to be in town for the day before I had to race back to the station to get the train back home (made it with 7 minutes to spare). As soon as I got back to Sevilla I took the tram to the centre in time to pick up my tapas tour clients for the evening. Phew! I’d like to write more about the wine tasting event on Azahar in Sevilla. Perhaps next week…?
