**THIS VIDEO WAS SHOT A MONTH AGO BEFORE LOCKDOWN** A couple of weeks before we went into lockdown, Yoly and I took a trip up to San Sebastian. And we shot a couple of videos. This is the first. Let's all stay at home, keep social distancing and ensure we can get through this! 💪🏾

A zurito is smaller than a caña -- usually half-sized. That's what makes it perfect for pintxos -- you're not drinking quite so much when you go from bar to bar.

Good show. Thanks for posting. Stay safe.

Thank you James!! Great vid

Hi James and Yoli, tried leaving a comment on how much fun it was watching you two at home cooking, but having a hard time with this KZread update. Besides that, really was surprised and happy to see a new video, and it all looked delicious. Hope you and yours are staying safe and well. Thank you!

As always, fantastic video James and Yoly!! This is giving me life during our own lockdown here in Ohio, USA. My husband and I had planned a big trip to Portugal and Spain and we're hoping we'll get to re-plan it for later this year. The Basque Country is on the top of our list!

Hi I think I have seen all your videos and I love them! What I love most of all is how you two love and appreciate each other! And Yoli is absolutely beautiful..I wish you both the very best forever

I'm watching this while I am eating my own boring meal for dinner. I am going to refer to this video as "James' Sadistic Food Video" since I've watched it on the day that I didn't make a meal to compare to this food extravaganza !!! I want to try the "Platillo" since I love potatoes and garlic together. I'm ready to be in Spain already. Get this virus under control so I can get my visa and travel there !!!! Thanks for sharing all these places and dishes and it is wonderful to watch how James and Yoli are total foodies, which is a vicarious experience for me as a foodie too.

San Sebastián is almost better in the off season as you can avoid the crowds and enjoy the local surroundings. Thank you for the video.

I love and miss San Sebastian. My family and I have visited 3 times already, having stayed in the square of la Catedral de Buen Pastor and Parte Vieja (the third time was a drive down from Biarritz). We've only explored the old town and Gros, but I'm always interested in parts south of the cathedral and more of Gros. It's such a bicycle friendly city, too, and we have enjoyed going through the tunnels of this part of Spain. I love pintxos and especially white anchovies. We can't get in them in California the way you do. We had to cancel our April trip to Barcelona because of the COVID-19 quarantine; most of it was planned because of your wonderful channel. I hope you and Yolly continue to stay safe. I hope to see your wonderful country and taste your amazing food again soon.

You and Yoly look like you had a lot of fun during the film of this vlog(or really good editing, HA). The food looks yummy and the people that run these places really come across as genuine.

Your wonderful video brightens my lockdown day in NZ.

Amazing! Delicious! Fun! Love your videos. For a few minutes I forget about what is going on and dream of traveling.

Hola! My best friend and his wife are vising Spain as I write this and have family in San Sebastian. They're in Santander now but will return soon. Their favorite bar in San Sebastian is La Espiga, and I can see why that is so. I have passed through the city twice on the way to and from Germany back in the early 1970s, when I was stationed in Berlin in the Army. You are fascinating and very informative about all things Spanish. It would be a lot of fun to accompany you on one of your trips through the country. Sadly, I won't be able to do that, too old and creaky at 76 to do much traveling these days. I had a shot at learning Spanish a two years ago, when I got back into contact with an amiga from my army days. Unfortunately, she had a stroke about a year ago and cannot communicate at all now. Thanks again for all you do for those of us outside your wonderful country. Viva Espana!

thanks for this -- SS is my happy place (sorry, I know you guys are Madrilenos) but I'm happy to see you focus on areas outside the Antiquo & love the way you two present these clips -- no annoying techno music or weird intros (well this one I think you started it) but its straight to the point & from your perspective. Appreciate that !

Only thing better than the pintxos is the energy you guys give off - Keep it up!

Never ceases to amaze me how much you two can eat.

Spoke to my friend today He lives in Zaragoza my heart bleeds for Spain and Her wonderful people.

My mouth is watering soooo much! Places in Melbourne that call themselves Tapas bars are not a patch on the real thing. Last in Spain in 2019 ….. pre Covid. Can’t wait to get back there.

All fantastic places and great food, Yummy, Been up there for three years, mainly in Pamplona, but was in Sanse long time too, Hondaribia also very good

Hi!Love your videos!!When I am back in Spain we need to make a video.I love Pintxos.Saludos desde Alemania

Mnomnomnomnom that all looked good, and I can tell I'm getting better because I really wanted to eat the dishes, they looked sooooo yummy. I'm almost there guys, almost. My taste got back a little today, smell is still gone, hopefully back soon as well. And then, I'm gonna order from local restaurants over here, I think I deserve that after these hell-weeks. Thanks again for a great video, stay safe. 😊❤️👍

I am from Caceres and live in Perth (Australia). I love your channel. One thing I miss a lot about Spain is the large pharmacies (well, and supermarkets too) where you can buy toiletries: soaps, shower gels, deodorants, fresh colognes, etc. Yoli should do a supermarket tour of Spanish toiletries, I am sure it would be very popular.

I remember gramma used to pickle sardines in her clay jars, and when they were ready to make fish sauce for her kimchee she would take to and put on a plate for me and give some fresh picked chili peppers and a bowl of rice. the first anchovy dish really reminds me of what i remember.

This should be classified as torture for those in lockdown! Mouthwatering!!!!

Can’t wait to get there!

How "Delicioso!" I would levitate if I could go "pintxos" bar hopping with Salustiano😍 My son & DAUGHTER went to Spain 2 yrs ago & rented a car. They drove everywhere. WOW they enjoyed everything with such delight. They loved ALL the food😋

Thanks for your videos as a new comer we followed this one in San Sebastián - going to the outer areas was a great tip! One was not so happy to see tourists it would appear (not one of your recommendations)! Ssua was fantastic , booked a table and ate the most delicious food, albeit in the old city!!!

Saw already many of your videos, but now I subscribed ! Did you eat all that in one day ? I am German and actually I live near Barcelona, but at the moment we are locked down in Galicia, where my wife is from. I know a lot of great places to have fantastic food all over Spain, but looking your videos I am still learning. Thanks a lot !

Me muevo entre la ilusión que le hace a uno que reconozcan las cosas buenas de su tierra, y la angustia de ver cuanta gente a visto esto y cuantos comentarios en tan pocos dias. Nos estamos cargando, ya nos hemos cargado de hecho, una ciudad preciosa y una manera de vivir. La parte vieja ya es una Disneylandia del pintxo, muchos bsstante cutres. A muchos autoctonos ya ni se nos ocurre acercarnos en verano a la viejo. Donosti esta muriendo de exito, como antes Barcelona y tantos otros. Ya np hay quien compre un piso o pueda vivir en la parte vieja. Y le esta llegando a Gros. En fin, es una pena todo. Y no es turismofobia. Es la cruda realidad. Un saludo

Funny how organ meats are actually great tasting - the cow tongue , livers, etc. are far more flavorful ( and tender) than most folks realize. Those pintxos sure looked great. Great video.

Great video thanks, do you have one for pinxtos in Bilbao?

I assume that this was filmed pre-lockdown. San Sebastien is a lovely place, but unknown to many people.

Hey guys, people who are not familiar with Spain may not know why you are always standing when you go to a restaurant/pub... Maybe you explained it before, but we think it may be useful to folks who don't know about that style of eating in Spain. :-). Absolutely loved this video... and thank you for the Euskera lessons!!!

One of the best restaurants I went to in San Sebastian was La Taberna de Blas. Highly recommend it, and the owner was so amazing!

13:18 Great tip.

You guys have come so far... and its so cool to have developed what you have. My wife (Russian and I American) did something similar in the past but more a mix of e-commerce and moving forward in health care within the US (which was challenging). Anywho... you rock, we've followed you since and it'd be fun to talk. Planning on a trip to San Sebastian and or Barcelona this year and would like to talk... will buy a tour.... hope to meet as we're considering the medical work we do now for Ukraine and perhaps how Spain revealed tours might pair up. Feel free to DM me.

I was in San Sebastian in January. Some of the best food I have tried in my life. Best place I have eaten in my opinion over there was Borda Berri in the old town.

I studied in San Sebastian 1993-1994 and it was an expensive city, people from Bilbao and Vitoria always complained and tried to explain how expensive it was compared to theirs...I remember myself that a bocadillo de tortilla went for 300 pesetas, pinxto 250 pesetas and basically all canas at least 150 pesetas!

Lengua (de vaca) a la vinagreta its pretty popular here in Argentina too. Its one of those dishes that fair better in simple terms, just that and perhaps some bread but without anything else (no condiments like mayonnaise, no egg, no cheese, just the meat on its vinagreta and the bread
