Choco is Kisko García's Michelin-starred dining room in Córdoba, a thirty-cover kitchen on a residential Poniente street that shuts for all of August.
Signature: Author menu of Córdoba produce
Order: The full author menu; the kitchen is built around it.
Tip: Lunch service runs only from 13:30 to 15:00, so a late arrival loses the table entirely.

Signature: ReCuerdos menu, MeMoria menu, NoStalgia menu
Order: The MeMoria tasting menu at €108, adding the Armonías Memento pairing for the full experience.
Tip: Reservation is compulsory and the kitchen runs long, so keep the whole evening free and book nothing afterwards.

La Cuchara de San Lorenzo is the spoon-food room in Córdoba's San Lorenzo, thirty covers of artichokes with jamón, grilled tuna and braised rabo de toro.
Signature: Alcachofas con jamón, Atún a la plancha, Rabo de toro
Order: The artichokes with jamón, then whatever stew is running that week.
Tip: Thirty seats and two brothers running the room, so book rather than walking up on a Friday night.
AndalusianChef Adrián Caballero€€€riberaSun-Thu 13:00-16:00, 19:30-22:30; Fri-Sat 13:00-16:00, 20:00-23:30
Regadera sits on Córdoba's Ronda de Isasa with the Guadalquivir outside, Adrián Caballero cooking cordobés classics from a kitchen open to the room.
Signature: Salmorejo, Flamenquín
Order: The salmorejo, then the flamenquín, both rebuilt rather than reinvented.
Tip: The riverside tables go first at sunset, so ask for one when you book rather than on arrival.
Andalusian€€€san-basilioDaily 13:00-16:30, 20:00-23:30
Puerta Sevilla fills a 200-year-old San Basilio house in Córdoba, five private rooms and a planted patio serving arroz del señorito and hake costrón.
Signature: Arroz del señorito, Costrón de merluza al queso emmental
Order: Arroz del señorito, then the Texturas de Pedro Ximénez for dessert.
Tip: Ask for the patio rather than a salón; the upstairs rooms are handsome but the courtyard is the point.
Andalusian€€€centroTue-Sat 12:30-17:00, 20:30-23:30; Sun 12:30-17:00; Mon closed
Ermita de la Candelaria cooks inside a converted hermitage in Córdoba, almond-sauce meatballs and honeyed aubergine under a Sol from the Repsol guide.
Signature: Albóndigas en salsa de almendras, Berenjenas con miel, Salmorejo cordobés
Order: The albóndigas in almond sauce, a direct descendant of the Andalusi kitchen.
Tip: The building is a former chapel, so tables are few; book a midweek lunch if you want the easiest table.
