Eating in the Jewish Quarter: what to order, and how.
We are a taberna on the Calleja de las Flores, the lane that ends at the Mezquita's bell tower. This is what we eat here, and how to order it.
What should be on the table
Córdoba's taberna cooking is short and traditional. These are the dishes we serve most, with the price of a full ración.
Salmorejo de la Calleja
€10Córdoba's thick, chilled tomato and bread soup, topped with Iberian ham shavings, egg and 1490 extra virgin olive oil
Flamenquín cordobés
€16Pork loin rolled around ham, breaded and fried, served with potatoes, a Córdoba classic
Berenjenas del Patio
€14Fried aubergine drizzled with miel de caña (sugar-cane molasses)
Croquetas de puchero
€14Home-made croquettes made with puchero, the traditional Andalusian stew
Jamón de bellota 100 % ibérico
€22.50Acorn-fed 100% Iberian ham
Patatas bravas
€9Fried potatoes with the Patio's own spicy sauce
What to drink with it
In Córdoba we drink Montilla-Moriles wine, made in the province itself. Fino goes with almost everything, oloroso with stews and Pedro Ximénez with dessert. If you can't decide, order the three glasses.
Fino
€3.50Dry, served cold, the local aperitif
Amontillado
€4.50Aged and nutty, for cured meats and cheese
Oloroso
€4.50Full-bodied, for the slow-cooked dishes
Pedro Ximénez
€4.50Sweet and dark, for dessert
Las tres copas
€8.50A flight of three: fino, amontillado and oloroso
How to order
Many dishes come as a tapa, a half portion (media) or a full ración. For two people, the usual thing is to order a few dishes for the middle and share.
Bread is €2. We have an allergen menu: just ask when you order.
When to come
We are open every day from 8:00 to 1:00. Breakfast until midday; the kitchen is open all day.
For lunch and dinner it's best to book: call or WhatsApp us on +34 744 79 58 05.
