    SAN SEBASTIAN, SPAIN - Welcome to San Sebastian, one of the greatest food cities in the world! Today we’re going on an ultimate pincho / pinxto tour, we’ll be eating seafood, jamon, light bites, and a Spanish tortilla. Stay tuned for some of the best Basque food on earth!
    Friends in the video:
    Gabriella Ranelli: www.tenedortou...
    Jeffrey Merrihue: / xtremefoodies_
    Again, San Sebastian is a capital of delicious food and they take it seriously. As soon as you start eating, you’ll notice the quality, care, and pride that people take in their Basque food. It’s ingredient driven, and you’ll get some of the world’s best quality.
    Antonio Bar (g.page/antonio...) - First stop today is Antonio Bar, champion of the Spanish tortilla - a mix of potatoes, onions, and eggs, caramelized until maximum flavor potential is reached. I tried many tortillas in Spain, this was the king.
    Gorriti Taberna (goo.gl/maps/Ff...) - Next we headed to Gorriti Taberna near the market for some small breakfast bites, all of which were delicious.
    El Tamboril (goo.gl/maps/EB...) - After walking around the market we then headed to eat some pinchos for lunch - we tried their potato salad, fried chili peppers, and their deep fried meat filled red chili.
    La Cuchara de San Telmo (goo.gl/maps/Ns...) - Next we had some meats, especially their delicious roast suckling pig.
    Bodega Donostiarra Gros (g.page/BodegaD...) - Gabriella took us for one last lunch stop for a simple tuna sandwich with vinegar.
    Ganbara (goo.gl/maps/bh...) - In San Sebastian, Ganbara is regarded as one of the best restaurants serving pintxos, and we were lucky to get a chance to eat their. They take food to the next level, everything dedicated to simplicity and best quality. I loved their velvet prawns and their mushroom dishes.
    Borda Berri (goo.gl/maps/os...) - Next meal we headed to Borda Berri, another famous food bar.
    La Viña (goo.gl/maps/QS...) - Finally to end this ultimate San Sebastian Spanish food tour we went to La Viña for a slice of the original legendary Basque cheesecake!
    What a day in San Sebastian, and truly an ultimate food lovers destination.

    What I Love about Italy & Spain is the simplicity of preparing their food, allowing the natural taste of the food to shine through. In America we overcook, over prepare our food! The freshness of this food makes you feel like you never had true prepared food. Mark, this is what sharing food is really about! In your own words "Wow!!! Can't help but to appreciate you & your show!

    Gabriella has been another perfect foil on your Spanish tour - these outstanding people you've worked with across Spain have taken everything to a genuinely jaw-dropping level. I love the format - working with people who are as passionate about food as you - and they simply take you to their favourite food spots - genius. I'm totally loving Merrihue being with you now...I'll feel rather sad the next time he's not by your side in a video! Loving your work, Mark.

      Add to the tour its neighbour Bilbao, the all-time rival of Donosti (the Basque name for San Sebastián). Both cities have been competing for ages for the Pintxos' throne.
      Bilbao is not right at the sea, but you can reach a lot of beaches by Metro. Also the product is fresher than fresh, top quality meat, fish and garden and a bunch of renown restaurants. After that take a walk by the riverside from the Old Town watching historic and modern buildings from 7 Pritzker winners (the Nobel Prize for Architecture), soon you'll find the Guggenheim Museum. You won't regret this visit.

    Pintxos and tapas, how easy is for a Spanish person to understand it and yet how difficult to word them to the visitors.
    The way I explained it in the past was like this:
    -Pintxos: one or two bites food portion, meant to be for 1 person and you have to pay for them.
    -Tapas: is not a specific food but a way to eat it.
    You can order almost anything from a menu, as long as it's portioned and set on the middle of the table to share, it'll be a tapa.
    Let's differentiate the "free tapa" that many Spanish bars and restaurants offer alongside your drink order (wich you can't generally choose, they'll bring whatever they have that day on the house) from "ir de tapas", which is the thing we actually do: pick a few dishes from a menu and share them all, in a very informal context and can be done standing at the bar or sitting on a table.
    Some places are specialised
    in this type of eating, so the food they offer is easy to split by the number of guests at the table. Some common tapas are croquetas, tortilla, calamari, charcuterie boards, etc, because is simple to grab from each plate without messing the table.
    It's also very common for a group of people to order a few tapas to share as starters and then order the main course individually (in a sitting restaurant).
    My last lunch at a restaurant: table of 5.
    The restaurant served us some olives and Galician empanada (free tapa that we call "algo de picar=something to snack on) with the drinks, we ordered some croquetas (we asked how many are they in a portion, and decided how many we needed for everyone to have at least 2 pieces, for example), padron peppers, octopus and a house salad to share as a starter, and then we ordered whatever each of us wanted as a main course. Hope it helps as an example.
    Another meaning of the word Tapa applies to the size of the portion, as opposed to Ración when written on a menu or chalkboard.
    Ración is a full size plate of food, a tapa will be a smaller portion of said food. Some places will call the small portion Tapa, some will say "1/2 ración".
    A ración of croquetas could be 7 pieces, and a tapa 4. A pintxo would be 1 croqueta, usually bigger in size.
    Sometimes we go for a beer before lunch and order couple of tapas to snack on while drinking and then go home to eat.
    Another day we go out for dinner and hit couple of taperias for a fun and light supper, or just stay in one place the whole evening for a proper table dinner experience.
    Tapas is not this one thing we all do the same way in Spain.
    Some regions are amazing for tapas, others are huge on stews and slow cooking.
    It's very hard to encapsulate the Spanish gastronomy because it's very local and region based.
    Whoever visits Spain from North to South, East to West, and the Islands, will agree that we have many cultures and landscapes in a small sized country.

      Friend Adam, if you have never been interested in Spanish food, it is because you are a bit lost when it comes to gastronomy, since Spain is one of the first countries with Michelin stars and its restaurants are among the best in the world every year, not to mention the chefs of the best rated in the world. I don't know what kind of cooking you like, but if you want to get to know Spanish you have to come to Spain, not get to know it through Spanish restaurants around the world. Each area of ​​Spain has its own cuisine that will leave you amazed. All the best. Sorry because it is not written, it is done with a translator.

      That wouldn't really be Spanish food though. That's Latin American food.

    My turn to say Oh Wow. That food looked so delicious! Couple of times I almost opened my mouth for a bite of food. I would say the creamy cheese cake is a must to try. Thanks for sharing your tasty food adventure!
