“珊瑚海”公寓 阿瓜杜尔塞

Somewhat tucked away in one of the narrow alleyways that dissect the heart of Almería’s old quarter, this restaurant has give a new lease of life to a former “asador”-style eatery. In spacious dining rooms that, despite being renovated, maintain the essence of Castille (one features a beautiful mural depicting a large black and white octopus!), the emphasis is on updated traditional cuisine that has moved away from a complete focus on meat to centre its menu on daily sourced fish and seafood that can be savoured fresh from the grill.

Through the mantra ‘A love for cooking’, an expression that encapsulates Ginés Peregrín’s vocation since his childhood, this chef conjures up Mediterranean-based cuisine that showcases his personality by incorporating influences from other cultures (Japan, Mexico, Peru, as well as the Netherlands, where he worked for several years). Everything revolves around a surprise tasting menu, with the option of careful wine pairings to elevate the experience, where you will find novel dishes like the Risotto-style gurullos with wild mushrooms and red prawns from the coast of Almeria.
