I came here to try Cordoba's famous Flamenquin. Something told me eating at a place so close to a main attraction may be a mistake but it was super hot and I was super hungry and 101 tapas had a menu special that included flamenquin, so I decided to give a try.
Mistake.
Granted, I don't have much to compare my flamenquin experience to. I was spending a month in Sevilla and Flamenquin isn't something you'll easily find there. However, this flamenquin was incredibly dry and didn't have much flavor. It actually felt like I was eating a day old dish that was fried too hard. The other items I had were okay. They offered a dessert that was some kind of almond cake and that tasted good (the waiter told me it was their specialty) but again, nothing super amazing. I would advise anyone looking for an experience in Cordoba authentic cuisine to look elsewhere but if you're just looking for a place to grab some grub at decent prices, this may work for you. read more
