I get messages from people talking about some of the difficulties they had figuring out what it means for them to not believe, and communicating with family members and stuff,” he said. thomas 1822 (castell henri) / levi 1826 (castell henri) / anne 1829 (castell henri) / david 1832 (castell henri) / mary 1835 (castell henri) Owen: Well who knows… perhaps it’ll be translated into Spanish, unleashed on international markets, taken into space… Owen Morgan, also known by his bardic name Morien (1836 – 16 December 1921) was a Welsh journalist, and a writer of books on the subject of neo-druidism. Morgan developed the mythology of both Iolo Morganwg and Myfyr Morganwg [ cy], and his druidical writing is not taken seriously by historians. [1] Life history [ edit ]

Never more so than now have the three siblings had to pull together and lead from the front to keep their livelihoods afloat. Tom was into his rugby, playing for Bridgend and Gloucester, as well as England schools before his blossoming rugby career was cut short thanks to an eye injury.

It’s fine on Friday lunchtimes now we’ve got a full brigade, but you could run the other type of place with just a kitchen hand. But I would always hope people can tell the difference- surely it comes down to what’s good food and what’s not good food. What we’ve been brought up on as a family is that classic European gathering around the table, sharing stories, over really enjoyable food. It’s what you’re prepared to pay for the ethical side of it as well as the flavour element.

FMD: Very few cookbooks have come out of restaurants in South Wales, apart from Anand George’s ‘The 5000 Mile Journey’, and the Hang Fire book, so an accessible Spanish cookbook that people can use at home is a first.

Although the 1881 census states his year of birth as 1839, latter studies have placed it as 1836. [2] Born to a Thomas T. Morgan, a coal miner, and his wife, Margaret, of Penygraig in the Rhondda, research in The Oxford Companion to the Literature of Wales states that an Owen Morgan was born to a Thomas Morgan and Margaret (née Owen) and christened in 1836. Although no explicit evidence is available, Morgan would later claim connection with the families of Morgan of Llantarnam and Thomas of Llanmihangel.

It might be a ‘standard’ salad but it’s beautiful because the tomatoes come from nearby fields and they’re the right thing to cut through the meat or fish, which are so rich and so powerfully flavoured…it’s that understanding that you don’t need more. Their new book Tapas y Copas : This Is Our Spain is their love letter to the country which has inspired their work for 20 years, and we thought the occasion was significant enough to warrant a long, freewheeling chat. It takes in everything from their inspirations to their hopes, their memories and challenges they’ve faced, shared memories of remarkable places to eat and much more.

An Interview with Tom & Owen Morgan (Part 2)- Bar 44 Tapas y Copas: This Is Our Spain

We love working with suppliers like David from Mevalco, he turned up in the early days of Cowbridge. Tom was busy in the kitchen but rang me and told me to rush round…and that was it. We ended up sitting in his van eating blood pudding and it started there. He had such a detailed knowledge of the food chain in Spain and his passion was to bring local Spanish food at a high level to the UK, which hadn’t really been seen before. Tom: The other thing to remember is that we’ve been doing this for 20 years now, and that’s a rarity. I think we’re the second-oldest tapas bar in the UK? If you want to keep on going, and be enthusiastic, and stay enthusiastic, and keep on pushing yourself so you wake up and think I can’t wait to go to work today… you want to try these products out and see what customers think. That’s what gets you out of bed when you’re running restaurants I think. And if you don’t go and have those relationships with the people you’re buying from, who are actually making it, it may as well be that ‘something else.’ Thomas 1880 (Llangyfelach, Swansea) / Edith 1881 (Morriston, Swansea) / Sidney 1887 (Morriston, Swansea) / Hilda 1891 (Llansamlet, Swansea) / Ethel 1894 (Llansamlet, Swansea) I lost three stone in weight in five months. When I came up for air my friends who I hadn't seen in that time couldn't believe it." When they started out in 2002, people though Spanish food was mostly 'fluorescent paella and microwaved tapas' (Image: Western Mail)
