Jarapea

A chef who spent years cooking in Chile before returning to the Basque countryside makes for an interesting plate, and the menu at Jarapea bears that out. This is a small, market-led restaurant in wine country where traditional Basque cooking gets a quietly cosmopolitan edge: ember work, punchy sauces, and seasoning that wanders further than the postcode suggests. The Michelin Guide awarded it a Bib Gourmand, which means generous cooking at sensible prices.
