A memorable restaurant and a must-see series: what you can't miss this week

The week that begins, with Jordi Garrigós

Some of the things we hope not to miss in the next seven days

I will repeat Lunch at the extraordinary Mexican restaurant in Huesca's Sants plaza, Las Tres Mentiras. Although it occupies the same location as the beloved Tierra de Escudella, nostalgia quickly fades with its excellent tacos, which feature on a menu full of pleasant surprises: the mushroom quesadilla, the lamb mixiote, and the chamorro are memorable accompaniments. All washed down with a Corona or a Michelada, of course.

I will listen Always the same, the new album by Me and the Bees, presenting their fourth album, their first after a silence of almost a decade. They're back with new features, the return of Eli Molina on guitar and a change of language from English to Spanish, with the philosophy of all these years: to make classic pop songs with the best melodies possible. And they succeed. Always the same.

I will read Little thing, by Alba G. Mora, a translator, editor, and now writer from Hospitalet de Llobregat, who publishes her first novel with Blackie Books. Hers is a story about a girl who collects unlikely objects and toys, a companion that fills her long periods of solitude. An exercise in strangeness and literary mystery that reveals a brilliant author.

The week that ends, with Thaïs Gutiérrez Vinyets

Notes on what we have seen, heard, tasted and, ultimately, experienced in the last seven days

I have seen Puberty, Leticia Dolera's series, set in the world of human towers, tells the story of an alleged sexual assault between 13-year-old boys. The series' merit lies in its successful portrayal of the complexity of this issue and the role played by adolescents' access to mobile phones and social media. Through this story, the director questions who would be responsible for this incident: the adolescent, the family, or society?

I'm back to watch the movies Gremlins and Gremlins 2 after from the fantastic interview that Xavi Serra did at the Sitges Festival alongside its director, Joe Dante, who received the Grand Prix d'Honneur, an honorary lifetime achievement award. Both films have stood the test of time very well and are fantastic family viewings if you're a fan of the genre, as they remain small gems of horror cinema with ample doses of humor.

I have bought the book Daughter of Revenge, published by Blackie Books, by Michael McDowell, the acclaimed author of the saga BlackwaterThis book originally published in 1982 is a thriller historical novel that presents us with a chase between two women through the northern states of the USA. With strong reminiscences of Stephen King, the book maintains the addictive rhythm of the author's other works.

I couldn't stop thinking in the return of the Victoria's Secret show, a brand that wanted to make an attempt to promote body diversity and natural beauty and instead ended up returning to the most stereotypical beauty standards in a fashion show in which the thinner the models are, the more they are shown. Some experts have made a political interpretation of the return of this show, claiming that it is linked to the rise of conservative politics and criticism of anything that smacks of culture. woke.
