Answer 1

Annierats se ha adelantado a Bosquederobles al responderte, en una hora.

Something similar happened to other person , Martin said "flan casero....." seconds before.

Thanks. :) - bosquederoble, Oct 18, 2015

Answer 2

I think it means that a person called Martin said this hurriedly. ( So that you would order this home-made pudding)

That sounds possible. :) - bosquederoble, Oct 17, 2015

Bosque, I had never heard this expression but I searched around and it appears the most likely interpretation. It can mean other things too.. - annierats, Oct 18, 2015

Answer 3

Your Spanish has a few errors and lacks accents and correct punctuation. But I can't fix it easily due to the device I am on. Encuentro o encontré for instance.

If the sentence is correct I would read it as it is moving forward as in it is happening, proceeding.

Homemade flan with dulce de leche. It is happening (it is going forward, it is going to happen), Martin. Help me please.

I am an intermediate level learner so wait for other input, I could be wrong.
