Seville is nicknamed the culture frying pan of Spain — discover why as you flit between charming eateries smack in the middle of the city with your local host, who knows exactly where to grab an on-the-go tostada de pringá or a sip of rich coffee along the Guadalquivir river. Next, explore the cobblestone streets of Santa Cruz to try a scrumptious pringá montadito at Las Columnas, untouched by tourist trends, or pop over to El Perro Viejo for the best papas bravas in the city. In a backstreet, you could discover a nook loved by locals for a helping of adobo de cazó, marinated in garlic, paprika and a whole lot of other good stuff, or gain calories for a cause with a visit to Convento de Madre de Dios for a bite of naranjitos baked by nuns —yum!
