My neighbours are too kind. They planted Padrón peppers and they are constantly giving me bags full of these wonderful veggies. I’m so grateful! The thing is, on their own, they are perfect. Nonetheless, I started fooding around with them. The result is this superquick recipe you can enjoy hot or cold. The Fergese it’s a hot recipe, but I love to prepare it and then have a cold bruschetta of the mixture before I put it in the oven….
It’s been a while since I’ve talked about one of my restaurant experiences. This is a good one for two reasons: I went twice and it’s Asian. It was my mum’s birthday a while ago and we all went to celebrate to Koh Lanta, a new restaurant in Coruña. I’ve taken a while to write about this because I’ve been busy with other stuff I had in mind, but I think it’s about time because their food is worth taking the…
I love colourful pasta, as well as I love natural ingredients. Although the obvious choice for making green pasta is spinach, I’ve made this one with matcha in order to give it a distinct flavour. Ingredients (for two people): For the pasta 1 medium egg 1 cup of white flour 1 tbsp of matcha powder For the sauce 1kg uncooked and unpeeled shrimp 1 onion 1 tbsp concentrated tomato paste 150 gr soft cheese (such as philadelphia cream cheese) I…
I love Medieval fairs, Renaissance fairs or any other themed fair that is supposed to be a recreation of another period of time I haven’t been able to live. Of course, I appreciate them more when they are so well done that you feel awful for not being dressed up. That is not the case of the one I’ll be talking about in this post. I am fascinated by how they sell anything that is handmade (not always, though) even…

(As soon as I get my new kitchen installed) But first, I wanted to introduce you to, probably everyone’s favourite season by giving you some tips to stay hydrated and cool in Summer (yes, both senses of cool): Drink plenty of water. Duh! Yeah, obvious. The probably new information is that it doesn’t need to be cold. Actually, it is more…
I love baba ganoush. In general, I love spreads. Maybe it is because the bread I get here is the most incredible thing you can find. But, come to think of it, I actually I love spreads in any type of bread. With this one in particular, I would recommend a nice naan bread or any other that is not too crunchy. Although crackers are the typical go-to for baba ganoush, this creamier and sweeter version loves some fluffiness to…
On the 26th of May, I finished the first part of the tour. The last gig was in Lugo, and it was so amazing I still feel Like floating after more than a week. The audience was so great they asked us for three encores, and we couldn’t resist, of course 🙂 We ended the night having some drinks outside pubs, chatting with some of the people in the audience. It was nice. The next day we decided to try Paprica,…

Also, if you do smaller portions, they are perfect for…
Last month I was in Gijón because we were playing at Gijón Sound Festival. We arrived the day before the gig, so I had time to try a nice restaurant called Kausa Nikkei. I’m so glad I went to that place. Last time I tried something involving Japanese in Gijón, I remember I didn’t like it at all. I am a sushi addict, and not being able to like any of the pieces of sushi I ordered really made me…
