One Star: High quality cooking
A property with lots of history (it was formally a convent, then a bar) which is now popular as a restaurant (it occupies the premises of the erstwhile El Arriete). The space has a new look and its own personality, featuring a rustic-contemporary ambience, including a particularly pleasant internal patio. Eduardo and Juan José Pérez, the two brothers who run Tohqa (Eduardo is in charge of the kitchen, while Juan is the sommelier and runs the dining room) are passionate about Andalucía’s grilled dishes (Eduardo calls himself the “fire chef”), with a permanent focus on locally sourced ingredients (eel, tuna, prawns, cuttlefish etc) although some produce comes from the family farm run by his father in El Saucejo (in the province of Seville). On his menus (Anafe and Tohqa), Eduardo uses words such as seed, fire, salt and path to explain the restaurant’s true essence, what it wants to represent, its surroundings, and the people who have helped it reflect the true meaning of this region.
