Brilliant Bilbao Food Tour - Gourmet Getaways

Travel is an essential element of The Foodie Formula. The world is full of delicious destinations, but some places are real culinary capitals where food takes a central role in daily life, where the culture of the place is expressed on your plate. That's what brought me to Bilbao in the Basque Country in the North of Spain. When you travel, you open up your mind to new culinary possibilities that make you a better cook and probably a better person. I learned a lot from trying the pintxos in Bilbao, Spain and I hope you did too!

    I would recommend the pintxos morunos at Melilla y Fez. You can ask them for the salsa picante on the side which is GREAT, if you like picante.

    Cada ciudad tiene cierta gracia. Simplemente depende si esa gracia es para ti. Tendré que hacer más investigación 😉

    El primer pintxo que tomas y eso no es un pintxo. Es como comer kebab el mismo rollo, nada que ver con la cultura básica de pintxos, eso es tema Maghreb, así q con 1 minuto ya se que no tienes ni idea de lo que hablas 😘😘😘😘😜😜😜 Ahora bien agradezco que no pongas música flamenca, en la trampa turística de la plaza nueva y el mercado de la Ribera

    ¡Gracias por ver el video de todos modos! Pasé un tiempo muy breve en Bilbao y fue la primera vez que probé los pintxos. Espero que no me haya presentado como un experto porque simplemente no lo soy. Me encantaría escuchar tus recomendaciones para una experiencia mejor para saber la próxima vez que voy.
