El Rinconcillo


What better place to kick off than the oldest bar in Seville. Located a short walk away from the more popular areas, this nonetheless attracts a large number of tourists, leading to a slightly weary-looking staff. It's the real thing, though as the deeply polished wood, faded notepads, and nicotine-stained paint will attest. As far as tapas goes, we found that they excel with their cured meats. There's a bloke in charge of cutting these jamons and choritzos into slivers of pure taste, and it's worth standing nearby just to watch him in action.
