Our Coffee Shop and Sandwich Bar

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!!

Spanish Snacks for the weekend

If you are planning on seeing a film over the weekend either in town or at home, or if you are still keeping up with the football,  why not try something different form the usual snacks on offer at your local cinema or corner shop?  We have a large selection of Spanish snacks available in our shop in Lincoln.  We have loads of different nibbles such as fried broad beans, with or without chilli, some fried corn and salted sunflower seeds.  These make a real change from the usual nachos and popcorn. We also have some sweet turron, chocolate treats or how about a natural wedge of dried figs with almonds, just made for when the munchies strike.

For the carnivores amongst us! (we fall into this category!) we have some great tubs of mixed snacks that include corn, nuts and Spanish pork scratchings.  And for the pure carnivore..... A simple bag of fried pork rinds - try keeping them to yourself!

Fresh Boquerones for a hot day!

Today we have some beautiful award winning Boquerones on our deli counter.  These large white achovies come from the Mediterranean and won a two star gold medal in last year's Great taste Awards.  They are not salted like many canned anchovies.  They are simply marinated in vinegar and oil with the addition of a little salt just to season. Delicious with some crusty bread and a salad.
