Ruben Lopez Mesa (Eat Spanish) - fostering appreciation and understanding

We love celebrating milestones at Dirty Linen. Today we talk with Spanish-Australian chef Ruben Lopez Mesa about the fifth birthday of Eat Spanish, a culinary organisation he co-founded to foster appreciation and understanding of Spanish food. Ruben is based in the very foodie town of Orange in New South Wales. His big ambition is that Australian households will have Spanish ingredients in the pantry and they’ll cook something Spanish at least once a week. Bring on the jamon!
