What I pack in my carry on: Travel Essentials. Packing tips for two weeks.

What I pack in my carry on: Travel Essentials. Packing tips for two weeks.

On Tuesday I’m taking a plane to Barcelona. I made a video so you can sort of come with me through the process of packing my things. I’m going to stay there almost two weeks and I am going to do a lot of different things: running, yoga, doctor’s appointment, meeting, hanging out with friends, food shopping… so I have to carry many different things. If you want to watch the video, here it is: So, what are your packing…

The Good Cereal (Coruña) because cereal for breakfast is always a good idea

The Good Cereal (Coruña) because cereal for breakfast is always a good idea

I went to make some blood tests the other day. The good news is I don’t have anaemia anymore! The better news is…I went to The Good Cereal to have breakfast for the first time and it was: I really want to talk about breakfast and cereal. For those of you who have been following me for a while, or those who know me since I was a kid (Hi Mum, Grandma and Viví!) you know I love breakfast. My…

Plant-Based Lentils

Plant-Based Lentils

When I got sick a couple of months ago I knew I had to change my diet. Not that I was doing anything wrong. I wasn’t drinking or smoking, I was eating a lot of veggies, walking more than 10k every day (I couldn’t run because of a knee injury). What I mean is, I was what people would consider a healthy person. But the truth is, I really wasn’t. As always, my researcher soul made me look for answers….

Empedrat: Summer Bean Salad.

Empedrat: Summer Bean Salad.

I feel like, with me, there’s always a story behind a recipe. I find this a charming thing about me and I believe it represents my true love for food. I don’t only remember the flavours, smells and beautiful colours of the things I’ve eaten, I also remember the experience, the company and of course the feelings when I ate that particular recipe for the first time, or any other remarkable time.     Yes, I have a good memory,…

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…

Burrito Bowl for Burrito Day to say goodbye to my childhood Butcher Shop.

Burrito Bowl for Burrito Day to say goodbye to my childhood Butcher Shop.

My family has always relied in the same butcher since I can remember. My grandma used to buy meat from her, and then my mum. But then I went vegetarian for a while when I left home, and when I started eating meat again (for health problems) I wouldn’t eat certain kinds of meat, so I wasn’t a good one keeping tradition. But, she’s closing down and as a kid I remember going with my mum or my grandma to…

Happy Anniversary

Happy Anniversary

One year ago today, I started my Instagram account (a day after this website) as a way to share my passion for food. I was sleeping in a hospital room and thought it was the perfect moment to start this project. Today I have a neck injury due to a car accident that could have been much worse. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Sílvia Fooding 🥑 Here for the food. (@silviafooding) I hope next year I…

Welcome Summer

Welcome Summer

Summer has finally settled, so get ready to get a series of mouthwatering fresh Summer recipes from this girl! (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…

Mijo Minibar (Vigo)

Mijo Minibar (Vigo)

The other day I told you about Ruxe Ruxe in Vigo. Today, I want to talk about another restaurant in the same city, Mijo Minibar. The night before an amazing gig in Vigo, I couldn’t sleep. You can blame it on stress if you want, but I have the nicest type of insomnia, the one that comes in the morning. Sometimes, I simply wake up because I hear a noise at 5am and I can’t sleep again. It doesn’t bother…
