This gem is the definition of no frills. With no menu, the nine other communal fish dishes are based on what the cook feels like preparing. Though the queue may be long, once you have your first mouthful of hot bread and harissa oil you will soon see why. Just wait until the platters of marinated fish curry are placed on the table...!

Not only is the building beautiful and worthy of a visit for its architecture, but the historical significance is worth learning about as well. If you come across the caretaker make sure to strike up a conversation as he is filled with stories and wisdom. 

Exuding tranquility and peace, Mimi Calpe is a true oasis. The beautiful garden and pool makes you feel like you are in a fairy tale. The stunning decor and great service are a bonus. 

Though Ch'Hiwat L'Couple does not look extraordinary on the outside - it's quaint, verging on tiny, and has a simple grey shutter door - the food is utterly exceptional. The true, homely welcome will absorb you; begin a culinary adventure of home-cooked tagines and stews, followed by a glass of freshly brewed mint tea.
