The person eating can can put it on al gusto, a little or a lot, however they like it. We often do this with salt, syrup, hot sauce… anything where individual palates vary considerably.

Couldn’t you just go for some refried beans right now? They are great for breakfast, great for lunch, and we’re happy to have them for dinner, not to mention a medianoche snack! Let’s drop in on Gloria as she cooks up a batch for us.

In beautiful Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, the local cooks know their fruit! Let’s drop by the lovely Casa Mar as Gloria prepares a glorious multi-colored fruit salad made with local sandía (watermelon), melón, and plátano (banana). You may soon find yourself blending melon seeds into a delicious horchata.

Carlos is a fine artist and an athlete who, when not painting a canvas, can be found sailing windsurfers and kites from his little guest house on the breezy south beach in Adícora, Venezuela. We asked him if he would give us a little presentation from atop his roof. You can hear for yourself that this spot is all about one thing, el viento!

Have you been under a lot of stress recently? Do you think it’s time for a vacation? Here at Yabla, we have the perfect solution: the beach, the waves, and some drinks in wonderful Adícora, Venezuela, the perfect place to let your worries sail away.

Meet David Bisbal, one of the newest faces of Spanish Pop, willing to take us backstage to the very center of his latest tour: Premonición. A one time only opportunity to peek inside the darkest secrets and brightest moments of his show.

To those of us not lucky enough to attend a David Bisbal concert, Yabla brings an excellent alternative: a backstage tour by David Bisbal himself. Fans, this is as good as it gets!

Rotten tomatoes are the last thing young David Bisbal needs to worry about: what his loyal audience throws onto the stage is of a much different nature. Beware of those extra large bras!

We know how much work David Bisbal, his musicians, and his crew have put into this tour. But hard work doesn’t mean that you can’t have fun. They find ways to keep the laughter going on the stage itself.

David Bisbal knows there can be more to being a star than filling stadiums and getting underwear thrown at him: He is a spokesman for child soldiers.
