So the most mouthwatering dishes continue to flow from ‘Javier’s kitchen’ like manna from heaven. Today’s dinner was another version of the chicken stew puchero that we have been eagerly slurping all week. It is just the most comforting and healing food I can be eating right now – good for the stomach and good for the soul.

Today’s stew had the additional garnish of quails eggs and croutons. Very. Nice. I’m the type of person that leaves the things she likes best, last one the plate to eat. This can sometimes confuse the people I am eating with, unless they know me well or eat the same way that I do! Today the eggs where eaten slowly and disproportionately, until there was one left, floating about in my bowl until all the liquid of the stew had been scooped away. Yes I can be a little weird!
