Toledo
Fabulously located La Ermita sits across the Río Tajo gorge from the city, meaning you'll have the tangled medieval core of Toledo spread before you while perusing its small menu of beautifully presented Spanish cuisine. The dishes change regularly but you can expect to see wild boar, salmon and suckling pig prepared with innovative culinary skill.
Book ahead and ask for a table by the window.
