Restaurant and tapas with mountain cooking and new touches next to the Gruta de las Maravillas, with acorn-fed Iberian and a wine list. Open Sunday lunchtime.

Jesús Carrión is a restaurant of mountain cooking with nods to elsewhere at calle Pozo de la Nieve, 35, a short walk from the Gruta de las Maravillas, in the centre of Aracena. The base is the produce of the sierra — acorn-fed Iberian ham and meats, mushrooms, cured meats — and the menu combines it with dishes from elsewhere, such as tuna tataki, duck foie or ajoblanco with scallop. They make the walnut bread and the desserts in-house, and the wine list is extensive.
Presa, pluma and boletus
Almost everything can be ordered as a tapa or half portion and as a full ración, which lets you try several things. 100% Iberian acorn-fed ham costs €15 for a half and €29 for a ración; the salted presa carpaccio, €10.50 and €19; the duck foie with spiced bread, €12.50 and €22; the boletus risotto with truffle oil, €8.50 and €16. The homemade croquettes are €3 each. Among the dishes, ajoblanco with scallop and wakame (€13), roasted pepper salad with fried cod (€16) and scrambled eggs with garlic shoots and ham (€17).
Iberian meats are the centrepiece: pork cheeks (€19), griddled presa (€13 for a half, €25 for a ración), pluma (€13 and €27) and Iberian sirloin with mushroom sauce (€24), as well as suckling lamb chops, duck magret or an 850 g chuletón for €48. The most characteristic dessert is the tocino de cielo cream (€7). The basket of walnut bread costs €2.50, gluten-free too.
Eating half portions to share and a meat dish, allow €35 to €45 per person without wine.
The tasting menu, for the whole table
If you do not want to choose, the tasting menu costs €52 per person with an aperitif, a glass of white wine, one of red and water: acorn-fed ham, presa carpaccio, ajoblanco with scallop, tuna tataki, foie, boletus risotto and Iberian presa with mushroom sauce, with an assortment of desserts. It is only served to complete tables. For groups there are menus at €43 and €46 with drinks, which are ordered by choosing the main course beforehand.
When it opens
It serves lunches from Wednesday to Sunday, from 13:00 to 16:00, and dinners only on Fridays and Saturdays, from 21:00 to 23:00. On Mondays and Tuesdays it is closed. To book, it answers on 959 463 188 or 616 990 309, Wednesday to Sunday from 11:00 to 17:30 and on Friday and Saturday evenings; otherwise, write to jesusgco@hotmail.com.
Before or after the cave
The restaurant is a few minutes' walk from the Gruta de las Maravillas and the Ham Museum, so lunch fits between the cave in the morning and the climb to Aracena castle in the afternoon, the same order as this site's Sunday in the Sierra de Aracena.

Qué pedir: salted presa carpaccio and boletus risotto in half portions, and griddled Iberian presa or pluma
