5. Plaza de San Antonio is one of the most central squares in town, full of political and patriotic meaning. In fact, here in 1812 the Constitution was promulged! Nearby, you will visit a tapas bar where you'll taste tapas like Papas aliñás: a delicious and refreshing twist on potato salad that perfectly captures the essence of Andalusian cuisine. These tender, boiled potatoes are lovingly tossed with a vibrant mix of olive oil, vinegar, fresh parsley, and a sprinkle of salt, creating a dish that’s both simple and bursting with flavor. Often adorned with capers or onions, papas aliñás are the perfect accompaniment to seafood or enjoyed on their own as a light snack. With their delightful combination of textures and zesty notes, they offer a taste of the sunny Mediterranean right on your plate!
