Food Travel and Culture in Spain - Piccavey Blog

After living in Andalusia for almost 10 years I´ve experienced lots of heatwaves and long hot Summers

I thought it was topical, particularly after the recent high temperatures in the UK too prepare a list of tips to beat the heat. Some of these tips may seem like common sense but they can make a big difference on a hot day.

My personal favourite from this list is keeping Aloe Vera Gel in the fridge. This is great for sunburn and prickly heat.

Are there any tips that you have that I´ve missed?

Keep cool and enjoy your Summer!

My gourmet visit to Cordoba

Typical Cordoba Food has a clearly visible traits of Andalusi cuisine. The history of the region is reflected in the food with saffron, almonds, spices and various recipes with aubergines.

In this post I review six restaurants in Cordoba:

Over the years of travelling around Spain I´ve found quite a few nice places to enjoy a summer evening with a freshly prepared Mojito.

Madrid, Granada, Malaga and other cities are listed.
These are all tried and tested personally by me
