Hemoa estado tomando una tapa de arroz negro con chipirones y un vino, algo pasado pero normal ya que sí lo hacen cada tiempo es lógico, de sabor bueno y con trozos de chipirón.

A nice, friendly local spot. Food is good, but unexceptional by San Sebastian’s high standards.

Meson Bidea Berri came highly recommended from a friend of ours who used to live and work in San Sebastian. We took her word and headed over there mid afternoon for a bit of a snack instead of part of our nightly pintxos crawl since it isn’t in the Parte Vieja section of town where most of the well known pintxos bars are congregated together. We came upon the bar and found a group of local old men enjoying soccer on tv and munching on delicious looking pintxos. After glancing through the menu and seeing what looked good displayed, we ordered some roasted Piquillo Peppers, Jamon Iberico, a Bocadillo de Pringa(mini sandwich with roasted pork), and some boquerones(marinated white anchovies) with glasses of a chilled Txakoli Rose which was recommended to us by the sweet and friendly gal behind the bar. Everything was delicious and well-prepared and the overall atmosphere of the bar was friendly and convivial. I’d be hard pressed to say I preferred one thing over the other since everything we ordered was wonderful. However, a true Jamon IIberico is hard to beat anywhere in the world so I would say if you’re there, make sure to order some because the nutty salty richness of that ham is truly hard to live up to. The girl who served us invited us back in the evening where it was supposed to be happy hour and we happily agreed to stop by. A great pintxos bar on the other side of town, Meson Bidea Berri is well worth trying out if you’re in San Sebastian looking for good eats.
