Los Sentidos

Los Sentidos occupies a restored house with an imposing stone façade in the centre of town, behind which the contemporary design of its dining rooms comes as something of a surprise (the main room stands out, in particular, as it is brighter and overlooks an internal patio). Owner-chef Juan Pablo Gámez is strongly committed to contemporary cuisine that showcases the bygone flavours and history of Jaén, adapting regional recipes with his modern culinary techniques. The à la carte, which always features plenty of daily suggestions, is complemented by two tasting menus: “GastrÓleO”, which extols the virtues of extra virgin olive oil; and “Un guiño a la TIERRA” (literally, “A Nod to the Land”), the latter only available by booking ahead.
