This tiny, unassuming yet friendly tapas bar, with just three tables and six bar stools, offers superb tuna cheeks and braised boar, traditional stews such as chickpea and prawns, and pistou (like ratatouille). There are daily specials, too; wines change weekly; and there are excellent sherries to try – the owners hail from El Puerto de Santa Maria, one of Spain's sherry towns.
