Castilla y León
What a find! In the otherwise-nondescript village of Ferreras de Arriba, close to some of the best wolf-watching spots, La Enredadera looks for all the world like a cool urban cafe. The food is thoughtfully presented, the service is friendly and its specialities include bacalao (cod) or carnes a la brasa (grilled meats).
The three-course set menu at lunchtime is outstanding, as is the arroz con setas y chipirones (rice with wild mushrooms and baby squid).
