Food, in sickness and in health (Hospital IV)

Food, in sickness and in health (Hospital IV)

For over a month, I’ve been quite sick. I had to go to the hospital a couple of times and stay there for a while. I had surgery in order to solve the problem, which is something I don’t fancy too much on a Wednesday afternoon, as you can guess.     It’s been two weeks since the surgery and I feel much better now. I am walking at a normal pace, I am making my own food again (I…

Mijo Minibar Strikes Again

Mijo Minibar Strikes Again

Ooops! I did it again! I went to Mijo Minibar and it was, as expected, delicious. Carlos and I decided to go do some busking in Vigo. We always love spending time there. After a morning playing in Ourense, we head towards Vigo in order to grab something to eat. Carlos suggested Mijo and I couldn’t say no. With our drinks came a glass of complementary olives and pickles, as well as some hummus. I was very glad about the…

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…

Paprica: Nice restaurant in Lugo

Paprica: Nice restaurant in Lugo

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,…

Kausa Nikkei: Peruvian Japanese fusion restaurant in Gijón

Kausa Nikkei: Peruvian Japanese fusion restaurant in Gijón

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…

Ruxe Ruxe (Vigo)

Ruxe Ruxe (Vigo)

On Friday we had a great gig at La Fábrica de Chocolate in Vigo. Well, I say great, but appart from that it was kind of mental. Two people fainted at the beginning, and it was kind of difficult to stay concentrated. After the gig I could talk to Ana, one of them, and she was feeling better. I hope Dani, the other guy, feels OK now because I couldn’t talk to him after the show. Some made jokes comparing…
