Txirimiri — Pinxtos in Catalunya’s capital
<p>Deep in the heart of Barcelona, you’ll stumble across a Basque pintxo bar that’s been thriving for the past 26 years. It’s an intriguing quirk of a city that is simultaneously one of the most international you’ll find and yet also the centre of Europe’s largest separatist movement that an ‘outsider’ like this can survive. And yet, <em>Txirimiri</em> is far from just surviving. Iñigo and the Martínez family have built an institution on a foundation of classic Basque cuisine at reasonable prices that shows no sign of slowing down.</p>

<p>Just like any good tapas bar, the thing that hits you when you first walk into Txirimiri is the bar laden with irresistible pinxtos, the unmistakable buzz of a local hub, and a true mezcla of smells wafting through from the kitchen. Combined with the Real Sociedad pennants you could quite easily be in the head chef’s home region.</p>
