How to get to Granada
RESTAURANTS
All these restaurants are within easy walking distance of the apartment.
You will get some idea of what the neighbourhood is like by looking
at the photos. La Cabina:
The plaza San Miguel Bajo is about 12 minutes walk from the flat. The
white houses with small balconies are typical of this area. Click
here
El Trillo:
If you take a winding walk around the Albayzín this is a good
destination. There is a peaceful garden and you can usually eat outside.
The food here is very good

El Pañero:
Stop here for a coffee or a caña on your way to Plaza Larga.
A terrace bar about 15minutes walk. If you want to try
some snails go
to the bar next to this one. Click

La Higuera. Pleasant
restaurant bar with garden, fountain and flowers. Good music
in
the bar during the evening. Fairly cheap. There is a
bar
in front of this one called the Ladrillo which does plates of various
fish with salad. This
is our favorite restaurant in in the barrio, nothing special but
good music and pleasant surroundings. Click
here
Casa Juanillo:
Just next to the Albayzín the the Sacromonte which is famous
for its caves and Flamenco dancing. The same family who own the restaurant
also run a flamenco cave where you
can see Flamenco dancing. Click
here Crowded on peak hours.
Food is OK, very traditional Spanish. I had novillo which is "young
bull" when I went there. Very good views from your table.
La Yedra. When
you go up to the Alhambra stop in at the Yedra either before you go
in or after you come out. It is in the road which is at the side of
the car park. They have a cool terrace and Pepe and his sons will look
after you well. They have good quality low price menus. This
restaurant is good and we have eaten there several times. Just outside
the restaurant you may be offered a sprig of Rosemary by a gypsy woman.
If you don't want it just say "dejame en paz" (leave me alone)
and even throw the sprigs of rosemary on the floor if necessary. But
don't blame me if you have bad luck due to the curse they put on you.

Restaurante Sevilla.
When you go to see the Cathedal
and stroll around the Bib Rambla. Stop in at the Restaurante Sevilla.
This is a typical Spanish restuarant with a lengthy tradition and was
one of the García Lorca's favourite restaurants. Sevilla
