The best restaurants Andalusia

To discover this Gallineta, you will have to visit the neighbouring village of San José, as it is one of the most refined addresses in the region, revisiting traditional recipes with great skill.

If possible, by settling on the terrace or in the garden. Attentive and efficient staff and a beautiful wine list.

After having operated as a restaurant since 1974, the address has also been transformed into a kind of centre for discovering the gastronomy of the Alpujarra since 2009.

You can enjoy the puchero de hinojos con pringá, a traditional stew of vegetables, cereals, fennel and seasonal herbs with its batch of bacon, meat and blood sausage; the gachas pimentonas, vegetable soup with sausage and grilled flour paste; choto guisado, grilled kid like Pampaneira, with almond sauce; or the pollo like grandma, with potato sauce and spices.

From the simple sale of granel wines accompanied by a little cold meats, it has gradually become a reference in the field of tapeo, and would have been frequented by García Lorca himself. While the building that housed this Enrique house was destroyed in the early 1990s, the tavern has been rebuilt as it was originally.
