St. George's mushrooms at Buckingham Palace

-



It was St. George's day and my Italian friend told me he has found a Delikatessen just at Buckingham Palace. Yes, he collected some fungus for me at Green Park. I have never eaten before that class of mushroom and I must confess the taste was good :)

Fue el día de San Jorge y mi amigo Italiano me dijo de haber encontrado una Delikatessen justo en el Palacio de Buckingham. Sí, recolectó algunos hongos en Green Park. Yo no los había comido jamás y debo confesar que estuvieron ricos :)

Aquí en catalunya el Saint Georg es el dia nacional de Sant Jordi, las calles rebosan de puestos de rosas y libros... a la mayoría de gente le encanta, a mi me parece un tanto excesivo, hubiera preferido una merienda como la vuestra, preciosos champiñones!!
y ya es primavera en Londres?!!?

Aquí en València las verdaderas delicatessen en hongos o setas son los "rovellons" o como dicen en la parte castellana de mi país los rebollones, son las setas más típicas y de las que le gustaba comer a Claudio el emperador romano de la dinastía Augusta, por cierto le metieron una seta venenosa, y así lo mataron. La verdad es que con un poco de aceite de oliva y asados están buenísimos, también la comida puede ser un arte.
¿Sabes que tienes un tipo (cuerpo) precioso?

This weekend I went twice to the Royal Academy of Arts to the talks of Mexican Architects.  The first talk on Saturday was by architect Michel Rojkind. It was amazing, I liked very much the friendly and social approach to all of his projects, they are quite innovative and he thinks of people.  He is an excellent story teller and all the public was captured by his talk. He is a people person, and he reflects that in his architecture... the project that impact me the most was the on-site extension of la Cineteca Nacional. I loved this place since I was very young and used to live in Satélite; as I am a film lover remember driving every weekend there. Later I was lucky enough to live in Coyoacan so I travelled there by bike.  I was very impressed by the fact that Rojkind's project involves the whole area of the Cineteca, he includes the Archives in his plan and leaves the old Cineteca building untouched, giving tribute to the history of this old buildi...

A leap of faith

  13 years ago I took a leap of faith and came with my family to London.  I thought it was going to be easy. It was not. I thought that because during my youth I lived in another country, and it was one of the best experiences in my life. That other country was Germany, and since then I longed for Europe, well I confess I still do… because you should know, England is not Europe. Of course this is my very personal view. I was born in Mexico City, a vibrant and chaotic city. Mexico is a surreal beautiful country. When you are abroad you worth it even more. You might wondered then, why did we decide to leave Mexico?  Well, we decided to leave Mexico because my country was becoming very insecure. It was during president Calderon’s failed drug war. Mexico was so violent that we decided to migrate for the sake of our family.  I have been very lucky to be able to travel a lot during my lifetime. When I was a kid, I was two months in China. It was the China of Mao ...
