Hondarribia was the second town in Guipuzcoa to receive the Charter in the year 1203 after San Sebastian and was the first to be founded by a Castilian king. Its strategic location, its importance as a fortified town and the development of its defence systems made this village, later a town, exceptional. Already fortified in the Middle Ages, it would not reach its maximum splendour until the first years of the sixteenth century. Its important commercial and trading activities, along with its significant fishing activity, converted Hondarribia into one of the most important enclaves in Guipuzcoa.

Besides its rich heritage and war history, the gastronomy has a lot to say in the essence of this coastal city. The environment was prepared to the birth of a culture around the gastronomy, it was boiled in their ancient customs and professions, fishermen both dedicated to the fishing of the whale and of the cod, and also farmers of "Caserios" (Old farmer basque houses) that were located round the fortified town.

Because of it we meet in Hondarribia a long culinary tradition that we will taste in a trying in one of the most fashionable places and with better reviews of the best contests of pintxos of the country.
Come and try it!
