  • Ode to Olives
    2025/02/17

    Laura and Nalini take a deep dive into the topic of Spanish olives. As the world’s leading producer of the savoury fruit, olives and olive oil are an integral part of Spain’s culture. The duo discuss their recent visit to a renowned producer of extra-virgin olive oil, Masía el Altet, where they discovered more about the cultivation and harvesting of olives, which included downing ‘shots' of olive oil!

    In the regular Slice of Life section, the ladies sample seven different types of olives paired with ‘dirty Martinis’ made from gin, vermouth and, unusually, olive brine. They also discuss their recent international travels: Nalini to Tetouan, Morocco and Laura to Cape Town, South Africa

  • Benidorm, the baddie of Costa Blanca?
    2025/02/04

    Does the tourist destination of Benidorm deserve its bad reputation? The ladies share their own perspectives of the town: Laura as a native, growing up there, and Nalini as a Canadian ex-pat. Although the ‘New York of the Mediterranean’ is synonymous with its nightlife and swathes of (largely) British visitors, the pair reveal that there’s a whole other side to it.

    In their regular Slice of Life section, the ladies sample Chardonnay wine from local producer Enrique Mendoza and homemade tortilla de patatas, while discussing two contrasting visits to Benidorm. One, a relaxed walking tour of the old town, taking in sophisticated bars and a restaurant with an unparalleled sea view; the other, a night out in the bustling tourist area, which included a visit to a karaoke bar.

  • Trip to Madrid
    2025/01/20

    Laura and Nalini relive a recent day trip to Madrid where a visit to the prestigious Loewe store was among the highlights. The luxury fashion brand was founded in the city in 1846, and as well as this history, the ladies discuss the store experience and the company’s highly desirable product range.

    While talking over other culinary and shopping delights of the capital, the pair sample sparking rosé cava from Spanish producer Freixenet and also enjoy the naughty-but-nice national treat of churros (still warm from the churrería). The episode concludes with Laura’s ‘Spanish phrase of the day’, and this may raise a few eyebrows.
