A humorous notice earlier than we get began: we prefer to eat. Like, rather a lot. We’re all foodies, all of us get pleasure from it, and we just like the attempt ALL the issues. Additionally, once we journey, we are likely to have one large meal every day after which snack and seize smaller bites the remainder of the day.

At the least 3 times in the course of the journey, the server requested us to cease ordering. “Okay, that’s sufficient meals.” LOL. Let it’s identified that we ordered rather a lot – you already know, within the title of analysis – and we crushed it. Perhaps they’re used to vacationers ordering a whole lot of meals and losing it? Welp, that wasn’t us.

Ofelia bakery:

We wandered into this charming little bakery as a result of it had nice evaluations. It additionally had gluten-free choices; it was very simple for me to eat gluten-free the whole time we have been in Sevilla. (Staying gf has made an incredible distinction in my autoimmune recovery.) I had a gluten-free tostada with avocado, jamòn, tomato, olive oil, salt and pepper.

It’s price mentioning right here that I just about by no means eat pork right here within the states – I cook dinner bacon for the household however don’t personally eat it – and haven’t been a pork fan just about my total life.

We didn’t make the most of the new chocolate, however we diiiiid have cupcakes and bonbons. I wished to fill my suitcase with chocolate bars however had a sense they’d soften on the way in which again.

Seashore meals!

I’ve no clue what the title of this place is, however it’s the restaurant by Chiringuito Roche in Cádiz. We rented a automobile one afternoon and had a seaside day, and on the restaurant, we ordered a ton of tapas to share. The highlights have been the paella, sardines, and chilly albariño wine.

You simply need to see it to expertise it.
