CHRISTMAS IN VALENCIA – JINGLE ALL THE XE! Christmas in Valencia is a time for Peace on Earth, goodwill to all men, Rita Barberá and (this year) Álvaro Negredo in Santa hats, people wearing scarves and heavy coats despite the lovely sunny weather, and lots of beards.

People spend their time fondly remembering relatives who’ve passed away while trying to avoid the living ones as much as possible and, in the present economic climate, using every last drop of ‘Valencian ingenuity’ to celebrate the party without breaking the bank.

Decorations and wrapping paper no longer come exclusively from the Corte Inglés or the Christmas stalls in the Mercado Colón, most people buy their tinsel and nativity scenes from a ‘Todo a Cien’ these days. You can get hold of blow-up versions of the traditional Three Kings or the less traditional Santa Claus

for a few euros, so why not have both?

When Christmas comes around, Valencians like to have their Belgian chocolate-covered Italian panettone cake and eat it. Not content with holding on fiercely to all their own home-grown traditions, they enthusiastically celebrate those they can successfully incorporate from any other country as well. Give them a few years and they’ll also be celebrating Thanksgiving, they’ve already imported Black Friday.

Let’s take decorations, for example.

Traditionally, every Spanish home is decorated at this time of the year with the dutifully sedate belén, a nativity scene with models of Mary, Joseph, the baby and perhaps some of the other characters from the Christmas story. Belén building is one Spanish construction industry that is definitely not in desperate decline. Belenes are getting bigger and more spectacular by the year. What started off as adding a lump of moss-covered bark to add a bit of ‘atmosphere’ has got completely out of hand. Now you can have an entire Little Town of Bethlehem on your dining room table complete with moving parts,

villagers and their houses, a lake and a fully functioning Roman era sawmill.

However, these days in Spain, even the belén has to fight for space with the bauble-strewn northern European Christmas tree, the Mexican poinsettia plant, holly branches and the plastic Father Christmas climbing up the balcony. In some cases traditions have merged. Thus you get mutant crib scenes of cattle and shepherds from sunny Palestine nestling among tinsel, fairy lights and snow.

Then there’s Valencia’s very own contribution to Christmas, turrón. For years, two towns in the Valencia Region had the Christmas sweet market sewn up. Alicante made “el blando”, a soft & dry almondy sweet moulded into a bar, while from Xixona (Jijona) came “el duro”, a hard & dry almondy sweet moulded into a bar. The third option in this grand array of Christmas delights was polvorones, a powdery-dry almondy sweet moulded into an oval shape. Polvorones, by the way, are only eaten at one time of the year. The reason for this will become immediately obvious if you ever try one.

When your entire Christmas hamper

twentyfoursevenvalencia 9

‛A nativity scene’

January in Valencia

has long been finished off, that box of polvorones (and there always is one) will still remain.

At some point people realised that, without surrendering long-held traditions, perhaps a bit of variety was needed. The solution was to take what at any other time would simply be called “a bar of chocolate” and rename it “turrón de chocolate” just for the Christmas period.

Nowadays, without anyone really noticing, bars of chocolate turrón have come to easily outnumber the traditional stuff on any supermarket shelf. They come in any number of not-so-traditional Spanish flavours, such as kiwi fruit, Irish coffee and rum & raisin. If they can’t get rid of them before the big day, they can be easily shipped off to the UK in January to be sold in Poundland. You may be surprised to hear that, despite being made from nutritious organic and wholly natural materials, as yet there is no great export market for polvorones.

In Spain, presents are brought by the Three Kings on 6 January. Baltazar, Melchior and Gaspar (as they were named in a manuscript of apparently Irish origin, ‘the Collectanea’, about 800 years after they were supposed to have existed) arrive in Spanish towns as part of a great cavalcade, throwing thousands of sweets to the kids lining the streets on the night of 5 January. This is yet another Valencia Christmas invention as the first ever ‘Cabalgata de los Reyes’ was held in Alcoy in 1866. The parade in the city of Valencia starts at the port, where the Kings arrive by boat, and finishes up at the Plaza del Ayuntamiento, where the kings are raised up on a fireman’s ladder

and enter the town hall through the balcony. In fact, they will use the balcony as a way into every house in the city this same night to leave all their prezzies, a neat and much more practical twist on the messy chimney thing you get in northern Europe.

You’d think that would be enough to keep everyone happy – but not for the festively frenzied Spanish. In the last few decades or so, Father Christmas has appeared on the scene. In Valencia, even he is an international mash-up.

With his white beard and red suit he looks like the Hollywood version, but for some reason he bears the French name, ‘Papa Noel’. Far from having to fight it out with the Kings for his status in the hearts of Spanish children, he’s been neatly incorporated into the whole tradition. So now, not only do they get loads of toys at Epiphany, they also get showered with goodies on Christmas Day. It surely won’t be long before the kids get the triple whammy. Why not get St. Nicholas, who brings prezzies for children in the Low Countries on 6 December, in on the act? The 6th is already a national holiday (it’s the Día de la Constitución) and according to Dutch tradition, St. Nicholas actually comes over from Spain.

Both the nights of January 5th and 6th are celebrated with the eating of Roscón de Reyes, a rounded, sweet cake with a paper crown on top and a bean and a present hidden inside. The tradition originates (you guessed it) not in Spain, but in France, where it has now fallen out of use. The lucky family member who gets the slice with the present gets to wear the crown for the whole day; the

Spanish are second only to the British when it comes to a passion for eating cakes and drinking vast quantities of alcohol while wearing silly hats. If you get the bean, you pay for next year’s roscón.

One truly Spanish tradition is the buying of Christmas lottery tickets, which is an obligation here. The Christmas period officially starts on 22 December when everyone, desperate to see if they’ve won ‘El Gordo’ (the big one), gathers round the radio or telly to listen to the poor, tone-deaf children of the San Ildefonso School in Madrid ‘singing’ out the winning numbers. No Spanish person can say “No” when offered a ticket, or will take “No” for an answer when trying to sell you one. This is purely to avoid being that sad person who always appears on TV after the lottery draw; the only one in the block who didn’t buy a share in the winning ticket desperately claiming they are really happy for their neighbours. This year’s ad for the lottery even depicts this scene, although the barman has saved a ticket for his tired and emotional barfly regular who’d thought he’d missed out.

Now that’s what I call Christmas spirit.

Wherever you are during the festive season, make sure you enjoy it as enthusiastically as the Spanish do.

Happy Christmas.

VALENCIA MUSIC

STEPHANIE CADEL ET LA CARAVANE

Stephanie Cadel

Stéphanie Cadel et La Caravane Based in Valencia, Stephanie Cadel is a French-born singer-songwriter who, with her cosmopolitan band La Caravane, has just released a colourful album that fits well with the festive season. We met up with her in the bohemian barrio of Ruzafa for this exclusive 24/7 Valencia interview…

Tell us something about your experiences and travels around the world.

I was fortunate enough to travel to different countries and what was interesting was that I wasn’t just travelling but I actually lived in various places for periods of time.

It’s an experience that makes you reevaluate your life, what you want, what you don’t want and also it gets you out of your comfort zone and open yourself up to new possibilities. For example, it was in Colombia in South America that I played my first concert. I was working in a Centro Cultural de la Cooperación Española and Article © 2014/15 24/ 7 Valencia

they proposed to me that I play a few songs with my guitar. I enjoyed it and from then on I started to play more concerts. I started playing little gigs in bars in London in England and later in Valencia, Spain, where I formed my current band, La Caravane. The ironic thing is that we are a group of well-travelled musicians from around the world: Belgium, Japan, El Salvador, France and, of course, Spain!

What are your musical influences?

I would say that my biggest influence is chanson Française but I also listen to quite a lot of jazz, folk and swing. In La Caravane, the good thing is that each musician brings in his and her own influences and this open fusion creates our own particular sound. We play around with reggae, bossa nova and sometimes even funk. We also love to try out different sounds in concert and on record. Our music is full of little details like exotic percussion, xylophone, ukulele etc…as well as the instruments that make up the band with flute & sax by Mario Luanco, clarinet by Clareta, piano by Mario Inclán, guitar & vocals by Stéphanie, bass by Bert and drums by Kazumi. On the album, you can hear backing vocals and violin by Patricia García and guitar & ukulele by Judith Elvira. The album was produced by

multi-instrumentalist Antonio J. Iglesias, who also added his magical touches to the album.

Tell us a bit about some of your songs on your new album, ‘Chanson du Voyage’.

Elle Peint The city of Valencia was the inspiration for this song. It’s about a girl who paints, but paints on walls on the streets. She paints and she goes without knowing of the effect that her work has on people who discover her art while they walk the streets of the city. Valencia is a city full of street paintings, which fires your imagination to keep being inspired by them and escape from the routine of daily life.

De Ton Corps a Mes Failles This song is a homage to the distance between two people, to forgetting your other half. But it is also a homage to the meeting again of bodies; it’s the flaws in the other person that attract us.

Tes Vins I composed this song for the 20th birthday of my little sister. Twenty (vingt)

twentyfoursevenvalencia 11

is pronounced the same as wine (vin) in French! It is a metaphor for her personal growth, maturing, that she gains body and experience, aromas and bouquet…like fine wines. Everything needs time.

La Caravane It is simply a song about ourselves.

It’s about our musical adventures, our instruments, our sound and what is behind ‘La Caravane’.

What is the difference for you between living in Valencia and living in France?

What has always attracted me to Valencia is the buen vivir (good living) of its people.

I love Brittany, which is where I’m from, but it’s here in Valencia that I have found people who want to enjoy life and to be happy. I’m not talking about the cliché from abroad of a Spaniard enjoying a siesta and little else…I’m talking about a balance of life where you don’t forget the important things, where little pleasures bring you happiness. Valencia is a very enjoyable city to live, a perfect size with a good choice of cultural activities, the sea and the sun and, of course, a laid back way of life.

What are your plans for the band in 2015?

Now that we have our debut album out,

we’re really looking forward to presenting it. We are organizing a tour of Spain and looking into the options of playing in France and Belgium, given that two members of the band come from those countries! We’re kicking off the year by playing at ‘Festival Actual’ in Logroño on January 5 and, bit-by-bit, we’ll be confirming dates.

FOOD

TURRÓN

By Helen Westwater La Ola Fresca It’s Christmas time. Ever wondered how to feed an army? Well, apparently this is how the Moors did it; with the use of energy-rich almonds and honey in a form convenient to transport, allowing an instant, on-the-move vitality snack and leading to the origin of the Jijona Turrón.

Just the thing for constant stamina over the Christmas festivities!

Since its invention over 500 years ago in the small town of Jijona, about 30 miles from Alicante, there are now hundreds of varieties and the majority of the economy of the town is focused on the production of turrón. Rules strictly control whether a turrón may be labelled with “Suprema” or “Extra.” The best quality is “Suprema” and to wear that label, the soft turrón must contain at least 60% almonds and the hard, 64% almonds. After that, there is “Extra,” “Estándar” (standard) and “Popular”.

As Christmas schedules are tight, out of the many variations, turrón blando is a classic and one of the simplest. Bear in mind that the almonds and honey are the main parts of the recipe, so the better the quality of these ingredients, the better the results.

Preparation First prepare your turrón tin. If you don’t have anything suitable, use a milk brick cut in half. Line the inside with parchment / baking paper. You will need the other half of the milk pack to weigh down the turrón while it cools in the fridge overnight.

If you don’t have ground almonds, you must toast the raw almonds first. Allow them to cool and then grind them in a food processor.

In a heavy-based pan, heat the honey and sugar on a medium heat. Stir with a wooden spoon until the ingredients have

Turrón Ingredients • 250 gm ground almonds • 40 gm whole almonds, toasted • Powdered cinnamon • 100 gm sugar • 200 gm honey (artisanal honey will produce better results) • 1 egg white • Lemon zest

formed into a thick and smooth cream.

Remove from the heat.

Whip the egg white so that it stands up in peaks.

Beat the egg white into the mix. There will be lumps at first but stir until they have disappeared. The mix will gradually turn to a lighter colour. This will take about 10 minutes.

Stir the lemon and the cinnamon into the mix. Add the ground and whole almonds.

Pour the mix into your prepared tin or milk box covered with the parchment (baking paper).

Using another container or other half of the milk box, press down well using a weight and leave in the fridge to cool for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight.

When your turrón is ready, turn it out on to a dish and that aroma of almonds will fill your house and prepare for the sensation of fresh homemade turrón that will melt in your mouth and leave you ready to face the exertions of the Christmas Holidays.

Have a great one and see you in the New Year!

RESTAURANT OF THE MONTH

LA TABERNA DE MARISA La Taberna de Marisa is a charming eatery on C/ Caballeros and Plaza San Jaime. It offers diners a choice of three different places to eat: the charming basement bar, the attractive first floor dining room and finally, the recently opened terrace shared with Café Sant Jaume. We went the last week in November and naturally did not expect to be eating outside, but it was a moderately warm evening so we opted for the terrace. We were surrounded by English speakers who were obviously here on holiday or business as they were all in short sleeves. I said it was a moderately warm evening, but not that warm – D and I kept our jackets on!

It’s open every day of the year except Christmas Eve! The Marisa in the name of this taberna is a warm and friendly woman who has owned and run the place for 14 years.

She came out to talk to us and to see how big our appetites were and also recommended Melior, a Ribero del Duero wine. We started with a plate of finely hand-sliced Serrano ham, nutty and succulent and served with warm bread (17€-24€). Next came a tall island of Bonito, smothered and floating in a sea of a honey and egg dressing with crushed almonds, a great combination the saltiness of the melt-in-the-mouth bonito (tuna), the sweetness of the honey and the crunch of the almonds (12€-

18€). We were halfway through this dish when it started to spit with rain and by the time we had finished, the rain was coming down a little harder, so we retired upstairs to the picture-lined dining room for our next course. This was beautiful to look at, a colourful and very tasty stack of mixed roast vegetables topped with grilled goats’ cheese and drizzled with a balsamic dressing (12.50€).

We had noticed on the menu that Marisa’s recommended dish of the season was eco-farmed Alcachofas tempura (tempura of artichokes) and were rather hoping to try them as the artichoke is one of our favourite vegetables. Lo and behold, this was our next course. Perfectly cooked young artichokes quartered and deep-fried in a light batter. We had been sending back plates that were clean to the point of licking them all evening and were getting a little full by now, so we were surprised when yet another course arrived – a rare steak, gently charred and served with chips and baby green peppers (22€, and if you haven’t had pimientos de Padrón, order some when you see them on the menu. It’s a bit of a Russian roulette, as the peppers are sweet and juicy but the odd one will be fiery hot.).

host and is obviously the reason the bar downstairs does so well with regulars.

“You can’t leave without trying one of our home-made desserts, I shall bring you a tiny taster if you are full, but you must try!” A few minutes later Marisa was back with portions not as tiny as she promised! A cheesecake with a banana and biscuit base and a three texture, oh-so-rich chocolate dessert. A delicious end to a great meal.

Tim Birch La Taberna de Marisa C/ Caballeros, 47 Tel: 96 392 18 27, 610 213 845 (Zona Carmen) www.latabernademarisa.com Open Monday – Sunday 13.00h – 16.00h, 19.00h – 01.00h Closed Christmas Eve Set menus (3 courses, drink, coffee): 13€ – 21€ Tapas: 2€ –4€ Good selection Spanish wines (red and white): From 12€ Sangria: 15€ a jug Agua de Valencia: 19€ a jug Vermouth: 5€

We had a little rest following this final course and were joined by Marisa for a chat about the restaurant and the hostelry business – her husband and brother-inlaw both have both run restaurants in Valencia for years. We also talked about and the pop-up El Corte Inglés interior store that’s recently opened opposite the taberna, and her opening hours, which is how we found out about her only closing day being Christmas Eve.

EL COLMADO DE LA RIVERA How do you choose somewhere for lunch from the places speckled around Plaza del Ayuntamiento? Easy, you’re in safe hands at El Colmado de la Rivera, one of the newest additions to the Grupo 374 family.

You can expect stylish Valencian fusion food in a friendly bar atmosphere.

tessellated everything to fit our compact table. A sweet otoño vegetable soup, crunchy tuna tostas, a zingy duck salad with dainty cubes of apple – the delightful starters covered the spectrum of tastes and textures. I’d have happily finished lunch there.

Pit Stop at the Filling Station

Main a Elegir

Don’t be put off if you can’t translate the name. The multilingual staff can’t, either.

Google Translate produces ‘the grocery store of the river bank’. Very ‘Wind in the Willows’. Ribera is simply the street name, and ‘colmado’ can also mean ‘full up’. Maybe it means filling station? Or cornucopia?

We might have figured out the shared-ness of the starters had we spotted ‘A Elegir’ (to choose) next to the mains. My choice, the merluza (hake), was off. Drat. Instead I had lentejas. Since it’s impossible to present lentils interestingly, I was satisfied with the steaming dish of rustic stew. I asked for bread. Exploring the lentil swamp with the bread, I found islands of potato and sunken chorizo. It was an even dish, not spicy but tasty and nicely presented.

Semantics aside, step past the pavement terraza and the interior will remind you of something grocery-related. Forest green metro tiles, industrial light fittings, metal and glass: El Colmado looks like a Victorian London meat market. In a good way (and obviously without the smell of sawdust).

Should the animated servers not be enough entertainment, a video screen pumps out ‘90s /’00s Anglo pop: Springsteen to Jamiroquai, Spice Girls to Lady Gaga. Try to resist humming along. On the walls, a temporary exhibition by a local artist adds splashes of colour.

A Soup to Share?

At lunchtime anywhere in Valencia, the menú del día is the no-brainer choice and El Colmado is no different: 11.90 euros per person, including one drink and coffee? “Sí, gracias”.

Starters are headed ‘A Compartir’ so we thought we had to pick one to share. Uhm, share a bowl of soup? No, our tall, confident camarero explained, all diners receive all starters. And the crema comes in as many dinky copas as there are people. Phew.

Everything arrived: plates, copas, salad bowl, slate tiles. Our server nonchalantly

My companion, still sweating from an unintentional meat overdose at a bodega the day before, decided to skip land creatures and try Pastel de pescado con tartura, confessing he had no idea what to expect, except “something fishy”.

What arrived, perched prettily on black rectangle, looked like salmon mousse on hummus, garnished with a tangle of rocket.

We looked at it, intrigued. How to eat it?

Another task for the bread. One speck of either concoction delivered a big shot of fish with an onion chaser, and enough salt to remineralise an athlete. Wow, pass the agua.

I had food envy: as the restaurant filled up, waiters zipped between tables delivering bowls, ladles and cauldrons of arroces (rice dishes), for a minimum of two people. For reviewing purposes we’d deliberated picked different dishes. Curses.

Room for More Our lunch was not man food. Aha, more room for postres (desserts). I’d already scoped out the puds before choosing a main, so I pretended to look at the carta again, choosing Torta de chocolate.

Again for contrast, my companion chose

Yogurt con confitura de melcotón. Mine was the winning choice: the yoghurt was as breakfasty as it sounds. It needed a contrasting crunch: maybe a shortbread or biscotti, and bam! from ordinary breakfast to restaurant dessert.

At the bar, a handsome besuited gent also ordered the cake, spending his lunch break picking at it slowly, with coffee and a newspaper. Doesn’t that vignette describe all that’s good about being a grown-up? The torta was rich and unctuous, demanding you savour it slowly. Alongside my (good decaff) coffee, it was a dessert to break your heart, because with every bite you’re nearer the end. If our waiter had snuck on a ball of helado as punctuation, it would have been pud perfection.

Forgive me, I can’t comment on the booze.

My companion enjoyed a beer (Heineken on tap) and we found just enough space on the table for our bottles of Lanjarón water. (I’ve failed here but in my defence, I had work to do later.) Dangerously high on torta, I floated out of El Colmado, minutes away from a few sugar-fuelled impulse purchases. As we left, lunch was morphing into afterwork, the atmosphere building with the buzz of satisfied diners. With quality tapas, clever burguers and a super value menú del día, El Colmado deserves to be colmado with diners.

LENGUAS VIVAS CELTA training in Valencia Lenguas Vivas, one of the city’s leading language schools, is 25 years old and is celebrating by adding teacher-training courses to its already successful range of products. We talked to the Director of Teacher Training, Patrick Howarth.

So what sort of teacher training courses are Lenguas Vivas running?

At the moment we’re concentrating on our CELTA courses.

Tell us a bit about CELTA. CELTA is the Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults. It is accredited by the University of Cambridge in the UK and is the most widely recognised initial language teaching qualification. CELTA graduates can go anywhere in the world and language school owners will know the value of their qualification – it’s a passport to the world. However, it’s also a passport to a job here in Valencia, and elsewhere in Spain, since more and more schools are now demanding CELTA as the standard initial qualification. It’s no longer enough for a job applicant to be able to speak English; schools want people who know how to teach English.

Article © 2014/15 24/ 7 Valencia

And how is CELTA organised at Lenguas Vivas?

Most schools offer CELTA as a fourweek intensive course and we do the same. However, we’re also offering semi-intensive five-week courses and part-time courses, too.

What sort of people take the CELTA course? Is it just for native English speakers?

No, not at all. Our current course has candidates from Italy, Romania and the Netherlands, as well as Spain and the UK. If your English is good enough, which means a C1 level at least, you can apply. Our candidates have a wide age range, too. We get recent university graduates but also people in their forties or fifties who are looking for a change of career. I don’t believe there any such thing as a typical CELTA candidate!

Later we met Gabriella Turner (23) from Sheffield, who told us something about her CELTA experience: “I studied International Business with Spanish and spent one year of my degree studying in Valencia. I loved Valencia and the Spanish lifestyle so I decided to return after my degree. Last year I spent one year teaching English and really enjoyed it so I decided to develop as a teacher and get a recognised qualification so I could find a job more easily in Valencia.

I chose Lenguas Vivas by searching the different CELTA centres in Valencia via

the Cambridge University website. The Lenguas Vivas had a ‘platinum centre’ label next to its name so I thought Lenguas Vivas looked most credible.

I really enjoyed the course. It was very challenging but very rewarding. I liked the ‘hands on’ approach to the course.

From the second day, we were at the front of the class teaching real students.

I received lots of help and support from both the tutors and my fellow candidates.

The course was also a great opportunity to make friends and meet interesting people from different backgrounds and countries.

I’m currently teaching English to children in various schools in Valencia. However, after Christmas I’m starting teaching business English to adults in a company.

I am really enjoying my life in Valencia, doing a job I enjoy whilst living in a beautiful city.”

VALENCIA FOOTBALL Mestalla

Alves

BATMAN, PRICE HIKES, AND A NEW GREEN CARPET With the international break taking centre stage in November, it was a quiet month for fixtures in La Liga. After a convincing 3-1 away victory over local rivals Villarreal, Los Chés entertained the fast-improving Athletic Bilbao at Mestalla. It was a frustrating game for the Valencia faithful as the Basques battled stoutly for a point in a goalless encounter that was marred by the state of the pitch. A heavy downpour just before the game resulted in the surface cutting up increasingly with every tackle and seriously impacting the ‘tiki-taka’ football Valencia have started to play under Nuno Santo’s tutelage.

A two-week league hiatus followed for the Euro 2016 qualifiers but this did little to keep Valencia out of the news.

Firstly news filtered through that the creators of Batman were suing the club for the use of the bat logo, soon followed by the presidents of Levante and Valencia getting involved in a public spat over ticket prices for ‘blanquinegres’ for the impending fixture at the Ciutat de Valencia.

With regard to Batman, DC Comics have supposedly filed a complaint with the European trademark office against

Valencia claiming they have exclusive rights for images with extended bat wings.

If the Batman creators decide to further their claims, then the chances of a filed lawsuit being successful seem remote at best, as the city has been associated with the mammal since the 13th century.

According to legend, the monarch King James I of Aragon had a bat land on the top of his flag as he was about to re-enter the city to fight the Moors. He consequently won the battle, prompting the bat to be incorporated into his coat of arms as a sign of good fortune. The club itself have used the logo on its crest since 1919, several decades before Batman was even created, so it seems DC Comics would need a lawyer with superpowers of their own to win any prospective case.

The argument between the two presidents derived from the belief on the part of Valencia that there was a pact between the Comunidad de Valencia clubs Elche, Villarreal, Levante and Valencia that away supporters would only be charged 15 euros per ticket for such games this season.

Levante denied there was any such pact and promptly doubled the cost of tickets. Valencia cried foul at the price hike and the war of words carried on up to the day before the game. An awkward greeting between the two on match day was compounded for Valencia’s president Amadeo Salvo, when Levante won the game by a 2-1 score line. The game itself was a typical derby, frenetic and frenzied, with both teams having the upper hand in patches of both halves.

Valencia were denied the opportunity of playing Paco Alcácer and Álvaro Negredo up front together for the first time as the former came back from international duty with an injury. Negredo did make his full debut but missed several good chances before Levante took the lead on the hour mark through a header from Víctor Casadesús.

Then it was the tale of two substitutes.

Dani Parejo, not completely match fit, came on for Piatti and within ten minutes had levelled the score, slotting home with his left foot after a nice one-two with Negredo.

Then the Levante substitute Morales had an even bigger impact on the match.

Two minutes after joining the game, the winger picked up the ball up just inside the opponents’ half and ran at the Valencia defence before cutting in from the right and hitting an unstoppable left foot shot past Diego Alves.

Intense pressure from the visitors in the last 15 minutes failed to produce an equaliser as Levante clung on to record victory and give the Los Granotas fans their third consecutive league triumph over their city rivals.

Next up was the much anticipated clash with Barcelona. Valencia had taken the opportunity of the international break to completely re-lay the Mestalla turf and the new pitch looked and played like a carpet. The green baize suited the passing games of both teams as Valencia matched Barcelona pass for pass in the early exchanges.

twentyfoursevenvalencia 37 Within 30 minutes, three of the Catalan back four were in the referee’s notebook as the Barcelona defence struggled to control their emotions in the fever pitch atmosphere the crowd were creating.

Clear-cut chances were at a premium throughout the match as the pulsating game went from end to end without the finished product for either team.

Valencia were fortunate midway through the second half when Luis Suárez was denied his first league goal by a linesman’s offside flag that gave the home side the benefit of the doubt.

Feghouli and Negredo both brought out excellent saves from Claudio Bravo but, with virtually the last kick of the game, Busquets broke the hearts of the home fans by stabbing home a winner from close range after Diego Alves had pulled off an excellent point-blank save from the head of Barcelona forward Neymar.

The Catalans did what all great teams do and found a way to win a game they did not deserve three points from. When Valencia can add that factor to their repertoire as well, they will start winning trophies again. Even so, the signs remain positive that the club are on the up, and the fans continue to feel optimistic about the rest of the season.

Looking forward, Valencia start their Copa del Rey campaign in December with a two-legged affair with Rayo Vallecano.

The computer has been relatively kind to Los Chés with the big hitters Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atlético Madrid all in the other half of the draw. Vallecano also provide league competition just before Christmas, with away games at Granada and Eibar sandwiched either side.

Levante’s win over Valencia solidified a marked improvement in the club’s form, after a good win over Almería and a point shared with high-flying Sevilla. A loss at Espanyol was not unexpected, but with winnable fixtures against Getafe, Córdoba and Real Sociedad on the December horizon they have a chance to leap clear from the relegation zone by the New Year.

CLUBLAND AT CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR Italian and Asian. A personal favourite of mine is Tao-Tao Asian Tavern (C/ Cadiz, 37). Asian owned & run, if you want authentic Thai / Vietnamese / Korean food accompanied by Thai beer in a minimalistic yet buzzing environment, this is the place to go. You might want to make a reservation beforehand, as it gets quite packed during the weekends.

If you like the neighbourhood, know that it is also home to a few good clubs, like Piccadilly (C/ dels Tomasos, 12) for a young, vibrant hipster crowd next to Ruzafa Market with techno, indie, pop, rock, ‘90s hits and more.

Ho-ho-ho!!! That time of year is nearly here. A time of joy, family, and crazy parties! ‘Love Actually’ film re-runs and “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” playing in every shop. Who, as I get older, I’m more and more convinced that he was just a misunderstood alcoholic.

That, or he genuinely had a shiny red nose.

The great thing about nightlife is that it brings people of different ages, backgrounds and tastes together.

Whether you like the festive holidays or not, we all go out to have unique experiences. If you’re in Valencia and looking to have unforgettable nights, you’ve come to the right place. Looking for bars, clubs and good weather? Here is a list of places to keep an eye out for.

If you want to go out, but you don’t want to go ‘out out’, you can go to my favourite pub in Valencia, Saint Patrick’s (Gran Vía Marqués del Turia, 69). There you will find a great community of expats, tourists, locals and lovers of football and rugby. With four plasma TVs, there is a constant stream of sports games. And the staff will make you feel right at home.

It’s a great place to start the evening, as it is right beside the famous Cánovas neighbourhood.

When it comes to food, Ruzafa is establishing itself as an epicentre for new restaurants. Similar to the atmosphere you would find in London’s Soho, there is a large variety of foods, ranging from your typical Spanish gastronomy to Article © 2014/15 24/ 7 Valencia

In the Juan Llorens zone you’ll find El Loco (C/ Erudito Orellana, 12), located quite near the Ángel Guimerá metro station. This quirky concert venue has some interesting live performances this December. First of all, if there are any Ramones fans out there, or people who want to say that they’ve seen a Ramone in the flesh, Richie Ramone will be playing a live set on 6 December. For those who are not quite sure which one he is, Richie is the drummer who joined the band in 1982, and the writer of the song “Somebody Put Something in My Drink”. Other interesting nights will be the ‘SuperBeatles’ night on December 27, where Spanish national artists will gather to pay homage to the legendary band that we all know and love, the Beatles (in case you hadn’t figured it out). The Quireboys also play here on 14 January in 2015.

Another blast from the past is the Belgian band A Split-Second, which will be at Play (C/ Cuba, 8) on 12 December. They split up in the 90’s but have been active on the scene since the early 2000’s, I would check them out for a fun night of New Beat music. Located in Ruzafa, you can enjoy electro & pop at Play. Or if you want something a bit more French and also a more modern live performance, check out Yelle playing in La3 (C/ Padre Porta, 2) close by the Puerto de Valencia on 11 December.

Regarding New Year’s Eve, essentially all night clubs will have their big, extravagant parties, just make sure you anticipate your choice, and buy a ticket in advance. My Xmas wish has been

24/7 VALENCIA answered, and it comes in the form of a ‘Wolf of Wall Street’-themed New Year’s Eve Party in Le Premier Disco (Av. Eduardo Boscá, 27), which sounds awesome! To be honest, one of the things I craved most after watching that film was to attend one of those crazy parties. At Le Premier Disco, you will find electro & rock.

Moon (Av. de las Cortes Valencianas, 58) will also be organizing a fun night, with dinner, entrance to the club and first drink included. If you are not familiar with Moon, it’s a fun club with ‘90s club music and a great crowd. If you’re lucky the weather will still be good and you can use the terrace, which has some comfy couches.

PS: For a guaranteed good night, you can always go to Veracruz (C/ San Vicente, 305), home to great DJs and beautiful people. I went there not long ago, and I can’t wait to go back! Shout out to Dom Scott who played a great set.

At Veracruz you can dance to electro house, dub and progressive electro.

Remember kids, don’t do anything you might regret, Santa Claus will know if you’ve been naughty. And remember, “No one looks back on the nights where they had plenty of sleep”. So go out there and have a ball, people!

YOGA IN VALENCIA

Mend and Bend: The Yoga Trend in Valencia With Valencia’s big-city hip ’n’ happening attitude, why isn’t the yoga industry booming? English writer Suzanne Worthington investigates.

I turned into a Bendy Wendy. Went to a few free classes, thought I’d hate it, got hooked. When I arrived in town a few months ago, I was surprised how few good yoga classes take place here. Is Valencia yoga-sceptical, just like I was 10 years ago?

Spain Opens Up to Yoga Yoga’s ideal for travellers: like walking, running or swimming, it’s a peaceful recreation you can do anywhere with little or no equipment. It’s big business in the UK and US. Every teeny town has a class on somewhere. In big cities, you can barely book a place in a class without being married to the teacher. There are even men-only ‘bro-ga’ sessions.

Like many trends that make their way over here, yoga is on its way but a decade behind. It’s easy to forget that until Franco’s regime ended in the 1970s, many people in Spain didn’t or couldn’t travel abroad. While thousands of Brits and Americans traipsed to India, the Spanish holidayed at home. Exploring alternative ideas through travel and education is relatively new for Spain.

“Yoga’s getting more popular in Spain now because doctors are starting to prescribe it,” says Jana Czipin, from Austria. She teaches Ashtanga yoga in Article © 2014/15 24/ 7 Valencia

three languages on yoga holidays and at the My Ganesha shop in Valencia. Now modern science is validating what yogis already knew, yoga has become a bona fide therapy.

any religion: how to calm our mind, how to understand our experience, how to live in harmony with ourselves and others.”

Fitness and Therapy

Of course yoga isn’t a new Western trend.

The styles Jana and Tina teach are based on Eastern wisdom over 2000 years old.

It’s still relevant today because while our environment has evolved tremendously, our human bodies haven’t. We’re not evolved to cope with the stress of modern life.

Jana first tried yoga to sort out a serious back injury. Within months she was painfree, stopped smoking and went from hyperactive to peaceful. She attributes these benefits and more to yoga. “Try different styles with different teachers to find the yoga you connect with,” she advises. “I prefer Ashtanga. It’s a smart system. The movements flow and we sweat. People are surprised at how hard we work in class.”

In contrast, relaxation is the most important aspect for English yoga teacher Tina McCallan. In her 20s, she discovered the inner peace yoga brings and now teaches Hatha-based mindful yoga in English at the Centro Budista Triratna.

“People come for the relaxation and find they develop flexibility and strength.”

For most teachers here, like in the UK and US, yoga can’t yet provide a full income.

Jana also teaches German, thriving off constantly learning and passing knowledge onto others. Tina is an artist, creating projects with businesses in Spain and the UK. Making people happy ticks her boxes: through both art and yoga, she leaves people feeling great all day.

Non-religious Spirituality Maybe Spain’s reverence of Christianity makes people uncomfortable venturing into a studio furnished with an image of Buddha or Ganesh? Both Tina and Jana emphasise that yoga isn’t a religious practice. “There’s no God involved, you’re not asked to believe in anything,” says Jana.

The word ‘yoga’ means ‘union’, and since we spend much of our time directing our attention out into our external world, uniting the mind with the body through the ‘asanas’ (poses) can be a spiritual experience. “For many, yoga is a path of self-realisation,” says Jana, “It has more in common with Buddha’s teachings than

Modern Stress, Ancient Body

If you’re thinking of trying yoga or starting again, go for it now, says Jana, before the winter blues set in and we get crammed together with relatives: “The immediate benefits include mental and physical harmony, less tension and pain. With regular practice, you notice more subtle benefits: more positivity, confidence, and faith in your instincts.” And if you’re worried about overdoing the food and drink at Christmas, you might like to know that most yogis find it helps regulate their weight.

The Next Step (Down the Mat) So what next for yoga in Valencia? Jana dreams of one day running a busy studio here, working with teachers of other styles to offer yoga for all in one dedicated place. Tina is keen to see more teachers using the city’s open spaces as venues, building visibility and curiosity.

I’m supporting the scene by going to group sessions. The city’s opening up to yoga and more peaceful people leads to a more peaceful city. And if you’re sceptical about that, well, yoga’s a cunning way to eat, drink and stay merry.
