Traditional Andalusian Cuisine at Taberna Los Berengueles
Nestled in the heart of Córdoba, Taberna Los Berengueles invites you to savor the rich and vibrant flavors of traditional Andalusian cuisine. Their menu showcases a carefully curated selection of starters, mains, and desserts, all crafted with fresh, local ingredients that highlight the region’s culinary heritage.
Starters
Begin your dining experience with classic Andalusian starters that burst with flavor. The creamy Salmorejo combines fresh tomato, bread, olive oil, garlic, and is topped with egg and jamón, creating an irresistibly smooth and savory dish. For a heartier bite, the Croquetas de Rabo de Toro are a must-try — these golden croquettes are filled with tender oxtail and béchamel, accented with parsley for freshness. If you prefer seafood, the Boquerones al Limón offer crispy anchovies lightly coated in flour and fried in olive oil with a zesty lemon punch. Finally, indulge in the Berenjenas Fritas, crispy fried eggplant drizzled with honey and sprinkled with sesame seeds, blending sweet and savory in every bite.
Main courses
The main dishes at Taberna Los Berengueles are a tribute to robust Spanish flavors and traditional cooking techniques. The Chuleton de Vaca Vieja features a perfectly grilled beef rib-eye seasoned simply with olive oil, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper, delivering a juicy and flavorful centerpiece. Another local favorite is the Rabo de Toro, a slow-cooked oxtail stew braised with red wine, tomato, onion, garlic, and bay leaves, resulting in deeply rich and tender meat. Seafood lovers will appreciate the Calamares Rellenos, squid stuffed with prawns, onion, and herbs, breaded and fried to perfection. For those who enjoy lamb, the Chuletas de Cordero come grilled with garlic and rosemary, offering a fragrant and succulent dish.
Desserts
Complete your meal with traditional Andalusian sweetness. The Tarta de Trufa is a luscious dark chocolate truffle cake made with cream, butter, sugar, eggs, and cocoa, perfect for chocolate aficionados. Alternatively, the Milhojas con Chocolate Caliente layers delicate puff pastry with rich dark chocolate and warm cream, finished with a touch of vanilla and egg yolk for a melt-in-your-mouth finish.
