Monday Morning Photo - Palacio de la Merced, Cordoba

Once one of the most important buildings in Córdoba, Palacio de la Merced was founded in XIII century as a  Mercedarian monastery. When the order was dissolved it became an orphanage then in the 1970s a Provincial Government seat. The Baroque portal is in the middle of the enormous frontage, the cloisters and monastery church remain and services are still held there today.

Best Tapas in Seville

Just got home from a great day out in Sevilla. I love it, I´m a country girl at heart and don´t like crowds or cities but Sevilla was amazing and so flat after Jaén. All the photos I´d seen and images in my head didn´t do it justice - even in the rain.

I met up with Shawn Hennessey from Sevilla Tapas and we had great fun tapas testing, my favourites of the day follow.


This one was my favourite in the Restaurante La Juderia, baby hamburger with jamon Iberico and caramelised onions.


In Restaurante La Sal we tried black squid ink rice with cuttlefish, seaweed fritters, tuna tataky with braised cabbage and cured tuna ventresca on toast and the winner was....


The divine seaweed fritters, my favourite out of the four and my two best tapas in Sevilla today.
