A viagem ao país basco não seria a mesma se não contemplasse uma paragem pelo Elkano (no 30° lugar do World 50 Best).

Aqui, à mestria da grelha junta-se o pescado do dia (não estivessem a 200m do mar), numa cozinha despretensiosa mas de grande exigência - assim como o é o serviço.
.
Se os pratos de assinatura foram o mote da visita (rodovalho, kokotxas, etc), o favorito foi a lula estufada - fugidas para o tacho por estarem já acima do tamanho ideal para a grelha - acompanhadas... More
