Absolutely lovely local experience: Restaurant El Rinconcillo (3. January 2020)
Somehow, the El Rinconcillo is an institution in Sevilla – wherever you check for restaurant recommendations, the El Rinconcillo pops up. Now, if you go before 7pm, you’ll just get food at the counter and will have to ‘stand around’ to eat your food and drink your glass of wine. Therefore, I would recommend you […]
Good for breakfast before you queue at Real Alcazar: Restaurant Taberna El Papelón (3. January 2020)
When you are looking for a place which serves a small snack in the morning, the Taberna El Papelón is rather perfect as it basically a little café where they have understood the concept of swift service (which is not absolutely normal in Spain). I asked for a tea and a “Bocadillo de Jamón Ibérico […]
Surprisingly lovely place in a hostel: Restaurant El Disparate (1. January 2019)
The El Disparate was recommended by the Guide Michelin 2020 app. When I arrived there I was rather surprised as the restaurant is part of a hostel. Now, prejudice or not, I did not expect a restaurant recommended by the Guide Michelin to be located in a hostel. However, the fact that I got the […]
An outstanding gem I randomly encountered: Restaurant Recoveco (1. January 2020)
Sometimes, you randomly find a little gem and the Recoveco was exactly that! While actually being on the way to the hotel, I passed the Recoveco which looked super appealing, so I decided to have a late lunch here instead. As an amuse bouche, “blue potato and pork belly” was served. The pork belly wasn’t […]
Lender of last resort – only if you have to: Love Horno Artesano (1. January 2020)
The Love Horno Artesano was one of the few places which was open in the morning on January 1st, so it was the place of choice for a brief breakfast. I went for a “bocadillo de tomato y anchoas con queso y jamón iberico” (EUR 4.35) which was actually quite okay. What wasn’t so okay […]
Disappointing New Year’s Eve dinner: Restaurant Azahar @ Hospes Las Casas Del Rey De Baeza (31. December 2019)
Let’s say, I had high hopes for the “NYE dinner” (EUR 100.00) incl. wines (EUR 35.00) but I was not entirely happy with the experience. The starter consisted of “pickled scallop in grapefruit with herring caviar” which looked nice but frankly, pickled scallop isn’t really my thing. Now, before we continue, I have to make […]
