Updated February 2025<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I first met sommelier Abraham Harillo in 2016 when he and his uncle \u00c1lvaro were running La Cata Ciega in calle Zaragoza, which soon became a neighbourhood favourite but then sadly closed after Covid lockdown in 2020. So in September 2022 I was happy to see that Abraham was back with a new solo venture simply called La Cata (The Tasting), featuring a short list of classic tapas and an ever-changing wine list with approximately 30 references available by the glass. La Cata is in a great central location in the heart of El Arenal, between the Cathedral and the river. The attractive corner space is divided between a dining area and a bar with high tables and stools with lots of windows and a wine-themed decor.<\/p>\n

Although I was sad to not find my favourite mojama pat\u00e9 on the menu this most recent visit (I’ll keep the photo here in case it comes back) I discovered an unexpected new favourite… the artichoke and prawn ensaladilla (big surprise for me as I’m not usually an ensaladilla fan). The smoked sardines are also delish and don’t miss their star dish of smoked eel with pickled red onion and horseradish mayo. There are stews that come either as tapas or raciones (large plates) and a selection of other typical dishes that are available as raciones. Friendly personal service, a perfect spot for wine lovers.<\/p>\n
