đȘđž Don't miss tapas in Seville!
đź Casa Morales: Sevilleâs 170-Year-Old SecretâA Century of Comfort Food Landing in Seville at 7:30 PM, starving, only to find most restaurants closed? Enter Casa Moralesâa tiny, 1850-founded gem I stumbled upon via Google. Little did I know, this local haunt (no tourist crowds, no Xiaohongshu hype) would become my two-day obsession. đ Why Itâs a Hidden Winner History: Established in 1850âthis place has been feeding Sevillanos through wars, revolutions, and trends. The walls feel steeped in stories, and the food? Timeless. Local Love: No tourists hereâjust regulars chatting over wine, kids sneaking bread, and staff who remember faces (the waiter recognized me on day two, patted my shoulder, and saved me a table). Cozy Chaos: Small, bustling, and unapologetically real. The servers are busy (no time for small talk), but their warmth shines throughâlike the âtoughâ lady who noticed me eating outside in the rain, frowned, and mouthed, âCold?â (I waved her off, but it felt like a hug). đŽ The Food: Simple, Perfect, and Healing Pulpo a la Gallega đ My reason for comingâand it delivered. Tender octopus, crispy potatoes, and just enough paprika. Classic, no frills, and exactly what I craved. SangrĂa đ· Refreshing, fruity, and not too sweetâpairs perfectly with the rich dishes. Mystery Pork (Waiterâs Recommendation) đ· A godsend for anyone traumatized by âBritish pork.â Juicy, flavorful, and cooked to tender perfectionâno dryness, no weird aftertaste. Just pure, meaty joy. Chicken Meatballs đą Day twoâs addition: moist, herby, and swimming in a light tomato sauce. Simple, but so satisfying. đ Practical Info Address: C. GarcĂa de Vinuesa, 11, Casco Antiguo, 41001 Sevilla (steps from the cathedralâideal after sightseeing). Tips: Language: Staff speak minimal Englishâuse Google Translate or point at pictures. Hours: Opens later than most (thankfully, for my 7:30 PM arrival). Price: âŹ10â20 per personâinsane value for quality and history. Casa Morales isnât just a restaurantâitâs a reminder of why âoldâ and âlocalâ beats âtrendyâ every time. No flash, no fanfare, just good food and genuine care. If you find it, youâre in for a treat. #SevilleHiddenGems #CenturyOldRestaurants #AuthenticSpanishFood #TravelEats
