Paella Party

Paella recipe, Kitchen to Table, Yamba

Thank you to everyone who attended our Paella Party, it was a great night of Spanish food and wine. We love to host these events for our customers as a way of saying thank you for supporting a local business and to showcase a selection of products available in the store.

The crowd enjoys Spanish food and wine!

Our theme for this event was Spanish Paella, so we prepared a seafood-based paella and a chicken and chorizo paella. Both were devoured by the hungry crowd, with not a skerrick of rice left in the pan! Oh, we love that … always a reassuring sign that our food was enjoyed. We used Herbies Paella Spice which is a great flavour base for any paella. We basically follow the recipe on the back of the pack, and it is easily adapted to either seafood or chicken and chorizo.

Seafood Paella

A great way to feed a hungry crowd!To kick off the evening we served a selection of tapas including Spanish Almonds, Marinated Olives, and crackers topped with Manchego cheese and Guava paste. Manchego is a Spanish sheep’s milk cheese produced in the La Mancha region. It is an artisan product that is produced following strict guidelines. It is firm in texture, with a tangy, full, and rich flavour.

Marinated Olives

The wine selected included a Spanish Tempranillo and a Witches Falls wild ferment Verdelho. Both wines complimented the Spanish food perfectly.

To round out the evening we served up Churros with Salted Caramel sauce … once again another winner with the crowd.

Our retail shop in Yamba is now CLOSED

Thank you to everyone who has supported us during the past 17 years. It’s been a fantastic experience but it’s time for new adventures!

We’d like to continue to offer cooking classes and other local food experiences, but first some time off to rest and rejuvenate! We’ll share updates here on the website, in our newsletter, and on Instagram and Facebook.

Meredith’s food tours for 2025 are unaffected by the shop’s closure. The tours to Umbria and Morocco are fully booked, however there are spots available on our fabulous Sicily tour in October 2025.

We hope to connect with you sometime soon.
