TATLER TIPS
Start with the croquettes such as the croqueta chorizo (creamy béchamel and chorizo) or the croqueta jamon y pollo (creamy béchamel with jamon and chicken). Save space for the mouth-watering txuleton, a juicy serving of grilled rib-eye with confit potatoes and roasted bell peppers. Straightforward, the paella negra hits the spot, but should you be more adventurous, do taste the arroz con bogavante (stewed lobster paella). For the classics, dig into the delicious callos (pork knuckles, tripe, and jamón Ibérico stewed to perfection). The churros con chocolate comes highly recommended— moist dough dipped in dark chocolate. Each bite, divine.
