Asador Etxebarri

San Juan Plaza, 1, 48291 Atxondo, Bizkaia, Spain

Have one meal in Basque Country? Heck, have one meal left on Earth? Asador Etxebarri is your spot. The one place I can recommend to everyone from chefs to foodies to clueless visiting parents that want a steak, this restaurant is worth the drive through winding country hills. Everything at this restaurant is smoked or grilled. Everything at this restaurant is of utmost quality. And, as I discovered on a trip with some friends, the chorizo, an item found on perhaps every menu in the entire country, is worth ordering. A unique, tender house-smoked cured meat, it was unlike any chorizo I have ever had, rich with deep smoked paprika and speckled generously with deep pink pork fat. A must-order at this must-visit.
