Top Pincho Chef, Ordicia Market and Bearitz






























Ordicia


Ordicia's Wednesday Market


Salted fish

Guindillas

Yesterday was a bit gloomy so we hit the market stalls for some ingredients so the boys could compete in  a cooking competition.  My nephews in CT do this all the time and our boys wanted to do the same, with pinchos as the theme.  They were very creative and tasted great.  We also ventured over to the surfer's beach the the strong, cold wind kept us from staying very long.  At night, I took off to try the last two recommended pincho bars that a really good chef in Sevilla recommended to me.  Mil Catas and El Lagar were both very tasty in a classy setting.  This morning I took off for Ordicia which has a large market every Wednesday.  The stalls all looked good so I snapped some photos.  I also bought a boina (basque beret) which was popular with the whole family.  I returned to San Sebastian and we all headed out to Bearitz, just over the border in France.  On our way back we hit Hondarribia, a border town on the Spanish side.
