The return to normality after the summer holidays marks the beginning of a gradual transition from relaxation and rest to daily routine and responsibilities. After enjoying moments of leisure, travel and disconnection, it is natural to experience a sense of adjustment as you return to everyday life.

This stage can generate mixed feelings. On the one hand, there is nostalgia for holiday days, where time seemed to stretch out and worries were put on the back burner. On the other hand, the return to routine brings with it a renewed sense of purpose and structure. The feeling of resuming regular activities can be comforting, providing a sense of order and normality in the midst of a constantly changing world.

It is important to approach the return to normality with a balanced mindset. Reflecting on the positive moments of the holidays and taking that revitalising energy with you can help you face the challenges that come with returning to work, school and daily obligations. Drawing on holiday experiences and learnings can enrich the way you approach your daily life.

Planning ahead is also essential. Organising schedules, setting goals and managing tasks efficiently can make it easier to adapt to the routine. In addition, maintaining a balance between work and personal time is essential to avoid burnout and allow for moments of relaxation even in the midst of routine.

The return to normality can be an opportunity to establish new healthy routines. Incorporating exercise habits, a balanced diet and time for self-care can help maintain a consistent sense of wellbeing, regardless of the time of year.

Ultimately, returning to normality after the summer holidays is a process of adjustment that involves combining the positive aspects of summer relaxation with everyday responsibilities. Maintaining a positive attitude, planning ahead and finding ways to balance routine with moments of enjoyment are key to successfully navigating this period and maintaining a sense of wellbeing throughout the year.

Tortilla de patatas is one of the most emblematic dishes in Spanish gastronomy, and every chef has his own special version. Renowned chef Dani García, known for his creative approach to cooking, has managed to reinvent this culinary classic in a unique and delicious way.

Dani García’s potato omelette stands out for its uniqueness: he prepares it without onion, because “that way it doesn’t give it sweetness” and retains an exceptional flavour. The absence of onion allows the flavour of the potatoes to take centre stage, achieving a smooth texture on the inside that is perfectly complemented by the egg.

The key to Dani García’s potato omelette lies in its preparation. The chef selects quality potato varieties, ensuring that they are tender and have a sweet, earthy flavour. These potatoes are thinly sliced and slowly cooked in olive oil, allowing them to brown gently and develop a deep, caramelised flavour.

In addition to the potatoes, another fundamental ingredient in Dani García’s potato omelette is the egg. The eggs are carefully beaten and added to the cooked potatoes, creating a smooth, creamy mixture that will be cooked over a low heat. The chef pays special attention to the doneness of the omelette, making sure it is juicy on the inside. The star ingredient is butter, which he adds a little before making the omelette. 

The result is tasty and comforting, bringing out the essence of the main ingredients. The combination of caramelised potatoes and egg creates a harmony of flavours that will delight the palate of diners.

Dani García’s potato omelette can be enjoyed in his restaurant Tragabuches or in establishments where his culinary creations are served, such as BiBo Londres. Every bite of this delicious omelette transports us to the essence of Spanish cuisine, with its perfect combination of simple but tasty ingredients.

In conclusion, chef Dani Garcia’s onion-less yet flavoursome tortilla de patatas is a unique and delicious interpretation of this classic Spanish dish. The carefully selected potatoes and García’s culinary technique make this tortilla an exceptional gastronomic experience. If you have the opportunity to try it, don’t hesitate to do so and enjoy an innovative and tasty version of this iconic dish.

The festival of San Juan is one of the most popular celebrations in Spain and is held on the night of 23rd to 24th June. This date marks the summer solstice and the beginning of the summer season.

On this magical night, the cities and towns of Spain are filled with bonfires and people celebrating around them. The tradition of lighting bonfires on the night of San Juan has its origins in ancient times, when it was believed that fire had a purifying power and that by jumping over the flames one could eliminate negative energies and start the summer on the right foot.

In some areas of Spain, such as Valencia and Alicante, the festival of the Bonfires of San Juan is celebrated, where huge wooden and papier-mâché structures are erected and burnt on the night of 24 June, known as the “Nit de la Cremà” (Night of the Cremation). It is an extremely popular festival in which the inhabitants organise themselves into commissions to build and decorate these huge structures, which usually represent satirical figures or current events.

Another widespread tradition on the night of San Juan is that of bathing in the sea or in nearby rivers and springs. It is said that the water on the night of San Juan has healing properties and can purify the body and soul.

In some regions of Spain, such as Galicia, the “Noite da Queima” is also celebrated, with the burning of rag dolls representing popular characters and the setting off fireworks.

In short, the festival of San Juan is one of the most important celebrations in Spain, full of local traditions and with strong popular roots. The night of 23rd to 24th June becomes a magical night full of magic, in which fire and water are the protagonists and in which people celebrate the beginning of summer with joy and hope.

Andalusia is a region of Spain that stands out for its rich and varied gastronomy, based on local and high quality products. Some of the most typical products of the region include olive oil, wine, fresh fish and seafood, and of course, Iberian acorn-fed ham.

Iberian acorn-fed ham is an emblematic product of Andalusian gastronomy, obtained from pigs reared free-range in dehesas and fed exclusively on acorns. The result is a juicy and tasty meat, with a unique flavour and a texture that melts in your mouth. Iberian acorn-fed ham is considered one of the best hams in the world and is an essential ingredient in many Andalusian dishes, from the classic “ham dish” to ham omelette and salmorejo. At Tragabuches we have Cinco Jotas which makes our evenings a unique and enriching experience. 

In addition to ham, Andalusia has a wide variety of local “kilometre zero” products, i.e. products that are grown and produced in the region itself, without the need to import ingredients from other parts of the world. These products include extra virgin olive oil, artisan cheeses, cold meats and fresh fish, among others.

Olive oil is one of Andalusia’s most emblematic products and is produced throughout the region. Andalusian extra virgin olive oil is known for its fruity and mild flavour and is used in many dishes in Andalusian cuisine, from salads and gazpachos to stews and fried foods.

Artisan cheeses are also very popular in Andalusia, especially in the mountain areas. Among the most typical cheeses are goat’s, sheep’s and mixed cheeses. These cheeses are made in the traditional way and are characterised by their intense flavour and creamy texture.

Summing up, Andalusian gastronomy is one of the richest and most varied in Spain, thanks to the large number of high-quality local products produced in the region. From acorn-fed Iberian ham to extra virgin olive oil and artisan cheeses, Andalusian gastronomy is a real culinary treasure that is well worth discovering.

¡Surprises are coming in 2023! But first, let us take a walk down memory lane and look back at all the events that we have experienced in this past year thanks to you…

We started 2022 with Dani Garcia’s debut in New York with Casa Dani and Pollo Verde, which are two ”Typical Spanish” in the middle of the Big Apple.

We begin the summer with the inauguration of Alelí in Marbella. A trip to Italy through the Italian cuisine of Dani García.
