Exciting Tastings: Almería s Traditional Dishes
On October 19 at 12 pm in Plaza del Icue, chef Patricio Úbeda from Almería s Blanca Brisa restaurant will offer a free tasting of traditional dishes like ajo blanco (a cold almond soup), and gurullos con jibia (a pasta dish with cuttlefish). This is a fantastic opportunity for Cartagena locals to experience the flavours of their neighbouring province.
