I cant believe where the time has gone. our new shop is six weeks old already! It has already changed from our original idea of just a small delicatessen. We have added a wonderful coffee machine which even though I say it myself, churns out some extremely good coffee. We also have started to make Spanish bocadillos and have a few regular customers who seem hooked on them. I must say that they are a fabulous change from the usual lunch time sandwich on offer in Lincoln. The most popular one is the Serrano ham with Manchego cheese. We make them just as they do in Spain. We start with a freshly baked half size baguette which is split open and drizzled with really good Spanish Olive Oil. We then freshly slice the ham, cut the cheese into little thin wedges and fill the baguette. Of course, many people choose their own fillings from our deli counter. We have beautiful salamis, chorizo, cured pork loin and a really fabulous dry cured smoked beef from Asturias in the north of Spain. Our cheeses also make wonderful fillings, the soft creamy cows milk cheese called Tetilla is very popular, especially with the early birds who get to us whilst the bread is still warm!!
