Spanish term or phrase: fisonomía turística
La gastronomía, por supuesto, es parte fundamental de esta fisonomía turística, con numerosos y tradicionales bares y restaurantes instalados en sus centenarios recovecos. Al mismo tiempo, en los últimos años, el Centro ha recuperado su protagonismo vanguardista en materia culinaria, y hoy alberga a muchos de los más sobresalientes restaurantes gourmet de la ciudad, atentos a la fusión de la cocina nacional con la proveniente de las más diversas latitudes.
