For a break from tapas, this welcoming little tearoom-restaurant is the answer. Hidden in a backstreet below the Alcazaba, it serves a reassuring menu of homestyle Moroccan staples – tagines, tabbouli, couscous and lightly spiced legume soups, with many vegetarian options in the mix. To drink, a herbed tea or infusion is the way to go.
The restaurant is run by a local group dedicated to revitalising the old town, with its many Moroccan immigrants, and reviving the culture of Al-Andalus.
