La Candela

At first sight La Candela looks old and homey, but upon entering you’ll find it’s a trip back in time. All fixtures and fittings are original from the early to mid 1900s. The entrance hall is a little confusing, but once you've found the right door, you enter a dark bar and walk through a chaotic arts and crafts area, then up and on to the dining area. Outdated, faded and shabby red seat covers outweigh the elegant tables in the battle for eye time. What you think is not going to be an inexpensive restaurant, by the look of its dilapidated state, is actually really expensive. The restaurant is run by two locally famous Chilean folk singers and they seem to expect that people will go there because of their fame and not because of the food or the ambiance
