El Almendro

El Almendro Review

Getting a weekend seat in this rustic old favorite is quite a feat, but drop by any other time and you'll be served great roscas (round hot bread filled with various types of cured meats), huevos rotos (fried eggs with potatoes), pistos (sautéed vegetables with a tomato base), or revueltos (scrambled eggs; a favorite preparation is the habanero, with fava beans and blood pudding). Note that drinks and food need to be ordered separately (a bell rings when your food is ready).
