Maralba

A family business that sums up what it has set out to do here in one punchy phrase: "Manchego cuisine with glimpses of the Mediterranean".
In the elegant dining area with a glass-walled wine cellar, Albacete-born chef Fran Martínez really knows how to showcase the region's cuisine and its produce; he gives his creations those modern touches that make all the difference – and at value for money that is hard to beat when it comes to signature dishes. The inclusion in the set menus of all kinds of fresh fish, even discarded fish (supplied daily by the fish market in La Vila Joiosa), and the option to add a wine pairing with labels from La Mancha or the east coast of Spain, are particularly noteworthy. The bread is, of course, also unique because they make it themselves.
