Traditional and delicious. The hot chocolate, eaten with little doughnuts (bunuelos), natch, is thick enough to remind you of school days’ chocolate custard. If you're hot, drink horchata (orxata in Valenciano), icy-sweet and refreshing drink. Particularly nice drunk in the traditionally tiled horchaterias around town.
Alternatively, have chocolate and bunuelos before going to bed - a great hangover prevention. During the Fallas festival, the best chocolaterias are open until sun-up.Send your feedback or queries to been.there@guardian.co.uk
