āThere is no sincerer love
than the love of food.ā
George Bernard Shaw
You can start your day with a traditional Spanish breakfast: white bread toast coated with virgin olive oil, topped with tomatoes and optional serrano ham. A coffee and a just squeezed natural orange juice. The perfect yummy combination to kick off your day!
After discovering some of the Palaces of Seville, itās time to have lunch. Bear in mind that Spanish lunch is served from 2pm to 3.30 pm. Anyway you can start your lunch at 1pm ābut remember, part of experiencing as a local is do what Sevillanos do. So letās go for some tapas and get the taste of Seville.
Seville is the best place to taste from mouth-watering traditional tapas to outstanding innovative ones. It doesnāt matter if youād rather go for a dash of culinary innovation or a classical one, you canāt miss out spinach with chickpeas; cod with tomato sauce, pork cheeks or fried fish (pescaĆto frito).
Around 5 - 6 pm youāll probably feel like having a coffee, an ice-cream or maybe trying churros with chocolate.
And for dinner, weāll show you different alternatives depending on the palace youāve visited. Maybe you want to keep on traditional tapas or a fancier dinner.
