Colombian Spanish fusion food in Granada…read more What's not to like? * * * Much of the food was simple well executed stuff. A nice salmon on the plancha. A nice salad. Pineapple juice comes out of the bottle. But the bottle is a Spanish bottle, The pineapples are Spanish pineapples, And the Juice is served with ice cubes. On a 110 degree day, Good pineapple juice on the rocks was just what I needed. I drank a lot of the stuff. * * * The dish of distinction was the shrimp coquetel. Mexicans do lots of coquetels. I eat a ton of these back in Texas where I live. This Colombian-Spanish coquetel put my hometown coquetels to shame. It doesn't hurt that Spanish seafood is just better stuff than commercial Gulf of Mexico seafood. Good shrimp are good shrimp. But what made the dish magical is that the coquetel sauce was much more acidic than are comparable versions in the United States. You did not hear me say "lemony" or "citrusy". If you had said "mild vinegar" I might have believed you. The tart bite made the dish incredibly refreshing. Normally on a seafood cocktail, I am there for the shrimp and the sauce is garnish. Here, as good as the shrimp were - and they were good, the shrimp were the back-up band for the sauce. The sauce put life back into my body and hope back into my heart. It may have been 110 degrees outside - But I was ready for five sets of tennis ... Or maybe walking up to the Alhambra on my thumbs while juggling watermelons with my feet. I don't think they put Red Bull in coquetel sauces anywhere. But this was food that was truly reviving. * * * Minor note: Dessert was popsicles. Popsicles in Spain are strictly commercial - although artisanal ones do exist. They are thin rectangles of actual fruit on the stick with juice and flavors in the ice on the outside. We had one green mango popsicle and one tutti-frutti popsicle. I would have never thought I would be happy eating a commercial popsicle Rather than getting a chef-made kitchen-made dessert. But some popsicles are really good.

Located in the pleasant quarterone of Realejo, and close to the Moorish area Albayzin, this place offers a great variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian food. Tapas and whole plates, it's very diverse. We had the mix of grilled vegetables and ravioli stuffed with spinach and ricotta, dressed with pesto-sauce. Lovely! Try the Rioja house-wine, it'll blow you away! Crowd (saturday) is a mix of yound and older locals as well as the same mix of tourists who don't mind a walk away from the Cathedral and the touristic restaurants nearby.

An outstanding vegan restaurant on Plaza de los Girones…read more * * * I was at first pessimistic, when I was served a tasteless vegetable soup. You have seen this before. Cook boils a bunch of vegetables together and puts the mess through the blender. You are served brown paint. * * * Everything turned incredible after that. I had two fantastic batidas. (That's smoothies for you Americans.) Spain has incredible fruit - and that applies to the fruit that they puree and put into tubes for batidas. I marveled at my batidas all night. My wife had a Pad Thai that puts the Pad Thai in Thai restaurants to shame. Far more intense peanut taste than you usually get. Plus an entertaining mix of vegetables in the noodles. I had a Seitan Cordon Bleu. I could not believe that you could make "Veal Cordon Bleu" with fake vegetarian ingredients and have it come out being remotely edible. This had the texture of an utterly magnificent piece of veal. Both real Veal Cordon Bleu and Good-For-You Cordon Bleu are texture plays rather than taste plays. This tasted practically like a Veal Cordon Bleu - which is to say it was bland. But a real Veal Cordon Bleu is incredibly comforting. This was incredibly comforting. I was impressed. * * * Desserts are usually weak at vegan restaurants. These desserts were world class over-the-top. My wife had one of the best chocolate puddings ever. One minute she is saying she is too full to touch another molecule. The next minute, she is inhaling her entire chocolate pudding in practically one breath. It had been years since she had had a chocolate dessert that good. I had the best take I have ever seen on cheesecake with berries on top. Spain must have very impressive berries - much more impressive than you get in the Pacific Northwest. My cheesecake was a regular vegan cheesecake. (These are often pretty good.) There was a microscopically thin layer of berry conserve on top and three small preserved berries on top of that. That microscopically thin layer of berry conserve Had more berry taste than an entire orchard in Oregon. It had more taste than a jar of fancy berry jam from France. I was hit with a tsunami of berry taste that left me frankly stunned in my seat. I went through the rest of my cheesecake about as fast as my wife went through her chocolate pudding. We had both found pure joy. * * * Is Hicuri a good vegan restaurant? Yes, I say, Yes, I say, Yes! And be sure to have dessert!

Particularly as the other restaurant Paprika (http://www.spain-in-a-campervan.com/food/paprika-vegetarian-restaurant-%e2%80%93-granada-2212.html) is quite pricey.

If you are happy to eat in a vegetarian-friendly place (that actually serves more vegetarian food than meat) then you can also try Art Hicuri (http://www.spain-in-a-campervan.com/food/art-hicuri-vegetarian-and-vegan-friendly-restaurant-and-cafe-%e2%80%93-granada-2188.html) .
