Discover the local culture of Cordoba through its cuisine!
This cultural and culinary experience in Cordoba is all about the strong Arabic influence on Andalusian cuisine. I'll take you to the local market to learn about the most important local ingredients. We will also visit some of my favorite local spots and share some delicious Andalusian-style tapas made with Arabic recipes, like eggplant with honey and mazamorra, with wines from Southern Spain. You'll learn all about the most popular dishes in town and enjoy the vibe of the 19th century patio.
On this tour we will explore the Jewish Quarter and visit the local market (Old Zoco) to chat with some of my favorite vendors and hear about their products. We will also taste some delicious tapas and learn about the important influence of Arabic culture on Andalusian cuisine.
One of my favorite things to do in Cordoba is go tapas bar hopping with friends. Join me on a fun-filled evening food tour and I'll show you some of the best spots in my city for authentic Andalusian style cuisine. Along the way, I'll share with you some great stories about Cordoba's culinary traditions and culture, giving you a local perspective on the city. I'll also give you some recommendations for things to do (and eat!) during the rest of your stay. Together we will visit traditional bodegas, bars and secret local spots, where we will indulge in delicious local snacks and wines from Southern Spain.
