Hankering for a taste of authentic Andalusian cooking? Cadiz has plenty to offer. Treat yourself to succulent and sumptuous seafood, such as oysters (de Sancti Petri), dogfish (cazon), or fried fish. You can also go for gazpacho (a cold vegetable soup that is truly Andalusian), merluza al achuri (hake casserole with green asparagus sauce), bacalao en rosa verde (salt cod in vegetable and tomato sauce) and desserts, such as tocino de cielo (a delectable pudding).
