Basque gastronomy

For a taste of local life, stop by the Market ” Mercado de la Ribera or Marché de la Rive as some would have understood it, a large covered market in a beautiful art-deco building overlooking (with its large decorated windows) the river that runs through the city.

This traditional market can be a good introduction to Basque gastronomy, renowned for its richness. You’ll see the long displays of fish and seafood, fruit and vegetables, which you’re sure to find on your pintxo plate in one of the city’s many bars. Must-try pintxos include salted peppers, tortillas, cod, croquettes…

We therefore recommend a gourmet getaway to Plaza Nueva, a meeting place for locals and tourists alike. A large, friendly square, as much for children, who play in the middle, as for adults, with its many bars and stores under the arcades.

Here you can sample the finest tapas. If you pass by Sorginzulo, don’t miss the ham croquettes or the delicious monkfish and shrimp kebabs. And if you’re feeling peckish, stop by Gure Toki, famous for its blood sausage, cod in pil-pil sauce and Idiazabal cheese soup.
