fried fish
was invented in CA?diz (despite English claims to the contrary) and there are numerous
freidurAas
(fried-fish shops) around the town as well as stands along the beach in season; few eating experiences here can beat strolling the city streets while dipping into a
cartucho
(paper funnel) of
pescado frito
. In the bars,
tortilla de camarones
(shrimp omelette) is another superb local speciality.
A couple of
freidurAas
worth seeking out are the
FreidurAa Las Flores
on the square of the same name and the equally good
FreidurAa Sopranis
, c/Sopranis 2, just off
Plaza San Juan de Dios
. The Plaza de San Juan de Dios, protruding across the neck of the peninsula from the port and the first long stretch of CA?diz's naval dockyards, has several cafA©s and inexpensive
restaurants
. In the square's southwest corner,
Pasaje Andaluz
, with a terrace, and the nearby and diminutive
El Quinto Pino
, c/San Fernando 2, are good places to try. Superior quality fare is to be had at the popular
Restaurante Achuri
, c/Plocia 15 off the square's northern end (closed Sun-Wed evenings), serving up some excellent Basque and
andaluz
-inspired dishes in a pleasant setting. For fish you must also visit the tiny
Plaza TAo de la Tiza
, in the old fishing quarter near the beach, which has dozens of good fish places, with outdoor tables filling the surrounding streets in summer. The more upmarket
El Faro
, c/San FA©lix 15, nearby, is one of the best fish restaurants in AndalucAa - their
menA?
is good value - with an equally outstanding tapas bar attached.
