Sophisticated Tastes: Pais Vasco

Overview

José explores one of the most sophisticated regions of Europe, Basque Country, and cooks some of the iconic dishes of the countryside – from pintxos (small regional tapas) including one named after a movie star, to the delicate cod dish known as bacalao al pil pil. He takes us to the traditional place in Spain for eating bacalao – a cider bar; explores the beautiful city of San Sebastian; and he visits Arzak -- the restaurant of one of his mentors, and one of the greatest restaurants in all of Spain.
