Sometimes the extraordinary is hidden in completely ordinary places. Like the Casa Maruka, the “grandmother’s house” that is a little away from the historical city centre in an inconspicuous little street near the Plaza de España. In Grandmother’s house, the name suggests it, tradition is respected – but the present is also firmly in view. At the stove is the married couple Maria José Calabria and Alberto Serrano, who conjure up modern interpretations of Spanish classics from first-class products. Very cautiously. With love and respect for the original. You can see that and taste it immediately. Delicious, the Coca de atún marinada con salsa de soja y compota de tomato (marinated tuna on soy sauce and tomato compote), the Rabo de toro quisado al vino tinto (cooked bull’s tail in red wine stock) and the Callos de ternera con pata y morro (braised veal tripe). The wines, which all come from Spain, are as carefully selected as the first-class ingredients.
