The grilled prawns arrive with no ceremony whatsoever, which is precisely the point. Zapirain is a traditional seafood restaurant, an old-school institution from the Basque coast that relocated to Bilbao after what sounds like a long and happy life in Lekeitio. The kitchen keeps things simple with fish and shellfish, letting the quality carry the weight, though a proper T-bone appears on the menu for anyone who wandered in expecting steak.
