Who wouldn't love a restaurant run in one of the world's most isolated languages? This taberna, in the basement of the Madrid Basque club, has basic appointments and fascinating orthography.
Wine: Txapoli (Roke-ren Berezia Vinebask), a half-sparkling white which the waitress poured from two feet above the glass.
Pimentos rellenos, filled with cheese and meat, dipped in batter, swimming in a warm (not hot) red sauce.
Cibollas relleños, one big onion stuffed with cheese in white sauce.
Little squid stuffed with meat and more squid (each neatly sealed with a toothpick) in a smooth sauce of their own ink.
The nice waitress offered us a sweet, mild liqueur called Pacharan as a lovely parting gift.
¡Unique!
