Restaurante El Chaleco

There are good restaurants in the whole region around Murcia, and one of the best is El Chaleco in Alhama de Murcia, approximately 12.5 miles south of the city. El Chaleco also was Murcia's representative during the Seville World Fair in 1992.

Dining

The narrow alleyways of Murcia’s old town are lined with restaurants, and fortunately, they haven’t customised their menus to the tourists' food culture. Instead, they serve genuine Spanish Mediterranean fare with fresh products, smooth olive oil, delicious sausages, and, of course, fish and sea food. The region’s rice dish Paella is famous, as rice is cultivated in the nearby village of Calasparra.
