A perfect little town with dozens of delicious options
We have already told you about its beaches, so now we focus on table: where (and what) to eat and drink in Vejer de la Frontera (which, incidentally, is still **one of the most beautiful towns in Spain**).
LOIN SANDWICH WITH COLORÁ BUTTER
Sales in the Vejer area there are many. And that they serve the loin sandwich with colored butter, too. But if you want to eat THE SANDWICH of loin with colored butter, there is only one: **la Venta Pinto**. His thing is to ask the breakfast time (Cadiz breakfast, you know) . A great classic that some have described as “initial experience”.
FRIED EGGS WITH POTATOES
We are still selling, now to attack, without mercy, the fried eggs of the sale the bull _(Santa Lucía, Vejer de la Frontera; tel. 956 45 14 07) _, named for its bullfighting aesthetic. This always full , and rightly so, since it is known throughout the (literal) world for those fried eggs with homemade potatoes, that can be accompanied with chorizo, ham, black pudding... Laugh at Lucio's, we'll leave it there.
TABOULÉS AND FALAFELES
So exotic as it sounds, ** El Jardín del Califa **, a hotel restaurant with hearth in the beautiful Plaza de España, has always been a gastronomic reference in Vejer. Book here the day you feel like change of scenery (see Moroccan or Middle Eastern airs) , and if you can (do your best for power) , do it in his garden.
They have also recently opened a tapas bar in the La Corredera area, along with other restaurants with proposals more contemporary and international
The Garden of the Califa, a true oasis
MEAT, MEAT AND MORE MEAT
Talk about castle are big words, because this is the real Cadiz meat temple . It's been a while since you posted the full capacity sign Until September.
They are to blame for this your own guests (those who cannot book now and raise their hands to their heads), since this family restaurant started 20 years ago a barbecue, and word of mouth (from chefs, foodies and local) was the one that made it become what it is today (moral: keep your secrets for you alone).
Its success is based on meats of different macerations (which they make in their own chamber), in beef, pork and sheep from different denominations of origin that are cooked on the grill (and in sight) and that must be accompanied with the delicious fries. first has some scrambled eggs, cheeses , proposals from the garden and some sea; and for dessert , Rich sweets.
In addition, in case it did not have enough attractiveness with the gastronomic, the space is amazing a little oasis that can remind Lanzarote and César Manrique, surrounded by vegetation, just a few kilometers from Vejer. "Yeah, but there's no table," you'll say. Don't worry, there is still hope , although, as we have said, everything is reserved until the end of September. The good thing is that every day they leave some tables for the first one who arrives, around 8:30 p.m., and also after 10:30 p.m. Luck.
In Castillería they take meat very seriously
DELICATES IN CADIZ
Calling itself Grocery Select Popcorn _(calle los Remedios, 1) _ and is inspired by the old gaditanos colmados , but in version contemporary. Not without reason, because here you can find all the delights of the earth : hams, cheeses, oils, wines, preserves and sweets. In addition, they can taste and eat on the progress.
TUNA
Varus House is famous for fish, and specifically, for tuna. Probably it is the best choice to eat it in Vejer, but if you really want a tuna for shoulder, we recommend that you go to Zahra, specifically to Hotel Antonio , and that you try it in all the ways you can imagine, including in ceviche and sashimi.
ICE CREAMS
Although perhaps the best ice cream in Vejer is that of the ** Stracciatella Ice Cream Shop **, artisans and made with fresh fruit, in The Master They make a polo that you should know about. Its about Cobi-choc , an ice cream bonbon filled with biscuit cream or tangerine inspired by the shelters of Vejer.
The cobijadas were women who carried black clothes with the face covered, and there is a sculpture that commemorates its existence in the Mirador de la Cobijada (where, by the way, you can see beautiful sunsets).
**DRINKS (AND MUSIC) **
The Vejer march cannot be compared with that of El Palmar or that of Conil, but this town also has its own (lack more). Maybe the cups are quitest , but in some places there is live music, others have Incredible views and no night is spared.
In ** El Claustro ,** probably the most beautiful restaurant in Vejer, in a manor house with gardens and a gazebo with views , you can dine under a vine, but also have a drink under the light of the moon If you are looking for a romantic place, this is it.
Also with great pleasure, and in an old stable from the 15th century, this The Well Paid , which usually has very good atmosphere . In addition, they organize concerts. Right next door is The Cellar , another place with good music and quiet drinks where they also serve snack dinners and sometimes there is live music. Perfect for a first drink
Finally, you have to go to ** Las Delicias ,** in a old theater converted into a restaurant which has been for several years hits and compliments. Mediterranean food with some touches from other latitudes, drinks and full concert schedule.
Las Delicias has a magical space
