Background
About Taberna La Tarara
The Story
Taberna La Tarara is a vermutería in the Legazpi area, opened in 2021 by Tamara, who had lived above the space and long imagined what she'd do with it. The name comes from García Lorca's song 'La Tarara', with a wink hidden in it: swap one letter and you get the owner's name. It's framed as a careful, humble update of the classic neighbourhood bar.
The Cuisine
The heart of it is vermut, around thirty of them from across Spain, from Galicia to Cádiz and La Rioja to Catalonia. To eat, there are tapas and planchaditos, sandwiches on cristal bread, in versions like wild boar, Cajun chicken and a vegan one, alongside albóndigas, gildas, boquerones, homemade anchovies and hummus.
