Editor’s letter
A.D. Korkchi
“A coast that is loud on the surface and quiet underneath. The places worth knowing are rarely the ones with the best signage.”

Wall preview
2 of 5 on the wall.
The rest is for the room.
“The places that don’t market themselves.”
Department · 01
1 place
Cocina.
Twelve seats, lottery, no menu. The dinners that exist for a season and disappear by autumn.
Private dinners, chef’s tables, by-lottery experiences.
Department · 02
1 place
Chiringuito.
The chiringuitos that did not become beach clubs. Chairs in the sand, fish that arrived this morning.
Beach restaurants — kitchens with a view.
Department · 03
1 place
Taberna.
Where the cook is in the kitchen and the menu fits in your head. Pick one for a Tuesday night and let it ruin every other place for you.
Real-cook restaurants where the menu fits in your head.
Department · 04
1 place
Finca.
Six rooms, an olive grove, a serious cook. The kind of place you book for someone you actually want to be alone with.
Gastronomical hotels, farm-to-table guesthouses.
Department · 05
1 place
Bodega.
Mornings on a stool. Cortados that make you reset your idea of a good coffee. Sherry rooms that close before they list.
Cafés, wine bars, sherry rooms, vermouth hours.
Routes
Three ways
through the city.
Each route is built by a single member. None of them work for us. Open a route, eat through it, confirm what stayed.
