A humorous observe earlier than we get began: we wish to eat. Like, so much. We’re all foodies, all of us get pleasure from it, and we just like the attempt ALL the issues. Additionally, after we journey, we are inclined to have one large meal every day after which snack and seize smaller bites the remainder of the day. (You may see an instance of this when we went to Mykonos here.) A minimum of thrice in the course of the journey, the server requested us to cease ordering. “Okay, that’s sufficient meals.” LOL. Let or not it’s recognized that we ordered so much – you understand, within the title of analysis – and we crushed it. Possibly they’re used to vacationers ordering a whole lot of meals and losing it? Welp, that wasn’t us.

We wandered into this charming little bakery as a result of it had nice critiques. It additionally had gluten-free choices; it was very simple for me to eat gluten-free the complete time we had been in Sevilla. (Staying gf has made an incredible distinction in my autoimmune recovery.) I had a gluten-free tostada with avocado, jamòn, tomato, olive oil, salt and pepper.

It’s value mentioning right here that I just about by no means eat pork right here within the states – I cook dinner bacon for the household however don’t personally eat it – and haven’t been a pork fan just about my whole life.
