Mesón La Fragua

At the very top of town, this cosy restaurant is worth finding for its traditional Alpujarras recipes fired by fresh local ingredients, including chargrilled meats, Trevélez ham, spiced lamb with plum and raisins, and vegetarian wonders such as almond-and-wild-mushroom rice. From both the wood-clad interior or the small terrace, the distant mountains provide a terrific backdrop.
