The house
The house
A neighbourhood kitchen, with the stoves in plain sight and the same cook for twenty years.
How this works
We opened in 1998 in what used to be a dairy shop. It started with six tables and a set menu priced in pesetas, and half the recipes are still the same ones.
We buy in the morning and we cook in the morning. That is why the set menu changes every day: it is not a marketing decision, it is that we cook what there is. When a dish runs out, it has run out.
The cocido is made on Wednesdays because it is started on Monday. The roasts are to order for the same reason.

The details deliberately left blank
A real eatery publishes a handful of numbers on its website that are issued by a public body, not by the business. This demo does not invent them: it leaves them empty, so you can see exactly where yours would go.
- Registered name and tax ID
- To be provided and verified. What identifies the company behind the premises in the legal notice and on invoices.
- Food business registration
- To be provided and verified. The entry in Spain's general food business register that matches the activity.
- Operating licence
- To be provided and verified. The one granted by the city council for hospitality use and, where there is one, for the terrace.
- Public liability insurance
- To be provided and verified. Insurer and current policy number.
None of these fields is simulated in this demo: they are numbers issued by a public body, and publishing invented ones would mean faking what cannot be proven.
What this page is
Casa Melguizo does not exist
It is an invented eatery. This website was built by Fernando Gómez de la Mata, a web designer and developer, to show how a neighbourhood hospitality business's site turns out: the daily menu, the à la carte menu, the bookings and the dashboard the owner changes it all from.
If you were looking for somewhere to eat
Better to say so straight away: there is no food here. No premises, no kitchen and no tables. And writing to this WhatsApp books no table, not here and not anywhere else: at the other end there is no restaurant, there is a web designer. Search Google for the restaurant you had in mind and call its own number.
If you run a bar, an eatery or a restaurant
Then this page is for you, and it is exactly what I can build. Everything you have seen —the set menu changed from a phone, the à la carte menu with no PDF and no QR code, bookings without commission and the house dashboard— works the same way with your name on it. Write to me and I'll tell you what yours would cost and how soon you'd have it.
