Gourmands<\/em><\/strong> of the world: the epicurean capital has an enviable gastronomical offering, whether you\u2019re seeking the perfect tapas or the comfort of fine dining. Zaragoza and its open kitchens are ready to welcome you and delight your palette.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Like other Spanish cities, Zaragoza has a deeply-rooted tapas tradition, in fact it\u2019s almost a religion. Although, unlike other places on the Spanish Peninsula, you don\u2019t usually get free tapas when you order a drink here, portions are usually generously-sized and beautifully well made. And if the tapas tradition is almost a religion, there needs to be a decent number of \u201ctemples\u201d where people can worship at the altar of this delicious custom.<\/p>\n

The best place to enjoy quintessentially good tapas is in the historic quarter, near Calle Alfonso and the Basilica del Pilar, in an area known as \u201cEl Tubo\u201d, a crossroads where the streets are filled with bars and restaurants. Some of the most traditional establishments are to be found in and around the crossroads where Calle Libertad and Calle Estebanes meet. Good examples are: Do\u00f1a Casta<\/strong><\/a>,<\/u> famous for its croquets including such delicious combinations as porcini with liver, cod with wild asparagus and chicken with chocolate; El Champi<\/strong>, who -rather successfully- place a strong emphasis on griddled mushrooms, and Bodegas Almau<\/strong>, a must-visit for anchovy-lovers as they prepare them in highly original ways: with cheese and chocolate, with honey and moscatel or with avocado, mint and almond.

As well as these traditional locales, there\u2019s no shortage of more contemporary places, with equally attractive menus. This is definitely the case with El Mel\u00ed del Tibo<\/strong><\/a> (Calle Libertad 12), two floors with contemporary decor where you can enjoy exploring its cocktail menu and a generous selection of creative tapas: ceviche bonarense<\/em>, chupa-shups de ternasco<\/em> (suckling lamb lollies), or hamburguesa de rape y gambas<\/em> (monkfish and prawn hamburger), among others.

Although El Tubo is the most popular area to go for tapas, it\u2019s not the only place where you can enjoy these culinary marvels. Almost all neighbourhoods have establishments where exquisite tapas are served. This is certainly the case in Bar Cervino<\/strong> (Calle Ainz\u00f3n 18), in Almozara, a little place which is always full thanks to its top quality fare. Back in the centre, another area worth visiting is the area around Calle Mayor and Calle Hero\u00edsimo, where Thursdays are very special thanks to a special deal called juepincho<\/em> (tapas and drink for two euros). Not far from there, at no. 6 Calle Cadena, we find another unmissable establishment: Casa Pedro<\/strong>, serving their signature tapas which have won a multitude of prizes, the most recent being first prize in the National Tapas Competition.<\/p>\n

But Zaragoza is so much more than finger foods and snacks. If you\u2019d like to enjoy a pleasant brunch in elegant surroundings, with music and a modern ambience, head to Garbo Gentlebar<\/strong> (Plaza de los Sitios 18), one of the city\u2019s trendy locales, where you can taste their delicious cocktails before sitting down to dine on some fantastic Eggs Benedict, or stuffed brioches. There\u2019s also no shortage of locales \u201ccrowned\u201d with prestigious Michelin stars, like La Prensa<\/strong><\/a> (Calle Jos\u00e9 Nebra 3), or Cancook<\/strong><\/a> (Calle Juan de Arag\u00f3n 5), both with tasting menus and prices of around 65 to 95 euros per head.

Ultimately, the gastro offerings of the Aragonese capital are more than capable of satisfying even the most demanding palette. One last point: make sure you try the ternasco<\/em> <\/strong>(baby lamb meat), it\u2019s traditional local produce and is prepared in many different ways, in tapas -such as the highly delicious madejas<\/em> (rolled lamb), for example-, as well as in bocadillos<\/em> (baguettes) or chuletillas<\/em> (roasted cutlets)…. And don\u2019t forget to try some of our Aragonese Denominaci\u00f3n de Origen wines: Somontano, Cari\u00f1ena, Borja and Calatayud. Cheers!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
