In July 2024, I had the pleasure of welcoming James Blick of Spain Revealed to Vejer, where we explored my favourite gourmet treasures. We indulged in the rich flavours of Lomo en Manteca and other exquisite preserved pork delights, savoured Almadraba-caught bluefin tuna, and enjoyed Retinto beef in both carpaccio and entrecôte form. To top it all off, we returned to my kitchen to prepare a dish or two, adding our own flair to the culinary magic of Vejer. Click HERE to watch the video
