Absolutely, I would smear that on really good toasted bread and maybe put pimientos rojos on top.
There is an interesting YouTube video featuring James Blick and AnnieB, who walk around Vejer and stop at some interesting spots including Paco Melero:
I like James Blick and his YouTube channel, but I didn’t care for this one. I thought it was too over-stylized and a bit campy. I did like the one hotel/restaurant(forgot the name) owned by that expat and would love to stay and eat there.
Edit: Hotel del Califa
We’ve stayed at Hotel del Califa in its new-ish 4-star annex, Plaza 18, (in the duplex suite with huge private outdoor terrace with views over the Strait, room 6) , and it’s lovely, as is the Moroccan-Middle Eastern cuisine (with Moroccan female chef and pastry chef) in the Jardín del Califa. The original hotel, Casa del Califa, is an absolute Moorish maze. with many different types of rooms and lots and lots of narrow, winding steps and nooks and crannies. It’s our favorite hotel right on the extremely pretty, tile lined Plaza.
James Stuart is the Scot who put Vejer on the gastro tourist map in many ways before Annie B’s kitchen. He came as a surfer, fell in love with the town and established the hotel and restaurant, then several more restaurants, then the tea salon, the hammam and rental apartments. His Grupo Califa is a constant, ongoing improvement project for the town, and he has housed quite a few “celebrity” guests over the years.
I’ve often wanted to take the 4-day Moroccan cooking class with Annie B that includes a 2-night stay in Tangier, as she is an expect on Moroccan cuisine and knows the ins and outs of the city. She also does other cooking classes that have appealed to me.
James Blick’s videos can be quite over-the-top campy (with “epic” this and "epic that) for me, but in his most recent ones he appears to have mellowed a bit. I subscribed to his newsletters when planning my move here and still do, as he does send out some pearls or wisdom from time to time about moving to Spain.

Looks like a fantastic hotel and restaurant. I’ve gotten some good tips from James over the years, but not as many as I’ve got from you. 
Ay shucks

Unfortunately all those amazing tips and recommendations are in jeopardy due to the looming pilot strike at Air Canada . I might have to cancel the whole trip. 
Noooooooooooo! I hope it´s settled post haste!
