Colourful CADIZ Man does not live on bread alone, as the saying goes… but it is also helps to have a good time. In Cadiz, you can enjoy yourself and a gastronomy tour of the province is a truly colourful experience. To get your day off to a good start, your breakfast will need to be the green of the Sierra olive oil or with a hint of the pink of paprika dripping on the Telera brown bread made in La Janda... Then, you will have to walk and browse in those delightful shops where every brick can tell a story or visit those dim wineries with the sleepy atmosphere where the wine is left to rest. Then, a real must is a visit to the local markets... which are brimming with colours. Before lunch, stop at one of the sidewalk cafés and watch the people pass by as you linger over a golden glass of Jerez. Ask the waiter for some green or black olives, either will do. And get ready to set off to discover the best tapas in each city. A little bit here and there. This is what tapas, to use the proper term, are all about. Golden fried fish or red tomato-based stews, with a few crunchy breadsticks, followed by a priñaca salad, fish baked with vegetables from Rota or some delicious “streaky” pork scratchings from Chiclana are just some of the dishes with a variety of flavours and colours. There is no black and white in Cadiz. They say that sunsets in Cadiz are very special and should be enjoyed over something “sweet”, which here means a caramel custard in Jerez or Tarifa, almond cookies in Medina, an ice-cream in the Plaza del Cabildo in Sanlúcar and a glass of Moscatel wine from Chipiona, which should be chilled, of course. You won’t find it in any book, but if you start your evening with king prawns and a glass of Manzanilla wine, you will not forget that day. Linger over your dinner. Start with seared Barbate Bluefin tuna with fresh vegetables from Conil. Acorn-fed pork or Retinta veal, with a Villaluenga Payoyo cheese sauce, are just of the delights waiting for you. Finish your meal with the house dessert and a good glass of brandy. It is up to you when you turn in… but you will be ready for more the next day. Pepe Monforte Cadiz Tapas galore The tapa was not invented in Cadiz, but it is re-invented here every day. You will fi nd people at the bar asking the waiter for “a little” of this and “a little” of that. Going for tapas in Cadiz is the best way to discover the city as you get double the pleasure for the same price… Cadiz has something to offer all year round.
