La Costa

The greenhouse sea of plastic sheeting that blankets this corner of Almería is, somewhat improbably, the point. A Michelin-starred family restaurant, La Costa turns that industrial landscape into a source of pride, with the chef's tasting menu framing El Ejido as a hidden oasis rather than an agricultural eyesore. Fish and seafood from the Alborán Sea anchor the plates, alongside vegetables pulled from small local producers who supply the very greenhouses outside.
