Part 5/7:
Bilbao was undeniably a haven for food lovers, with every bar presenting a story and a culture behind its pintxos. Each taste ignited curiosity, compelling us to step outside our comfort zones and indulge in the myriad flavors available.
A Taste of Tradition at Café Iruña
The following day brought us to Café Iruña, an establishment that captivated with its traditional vibe and bustling atmosphere. Enjoying a version of tuna salad with a twist, paired with local beer, reminded us of the straightforward yet impactful quality of Basque cuisine.
The highlight was undoubtedly the pintxos morunos, prepared with an artisanal touch, capturing the heart of spiced lamb skewers with vibrant flavor and freshness that surpassed our previous encounters.
