Spain: Basque Country

Off the Beaten Path · Season 1 · Episode 10
The likeable Rastislav has a mother from Madrid, but years ago his heart remained in the green region of the Basque Country. In a land with what is considered the best Spanish cuisine, we will personally experience how apple cider, sidra, is poured from two meters directly into a glass—traditionally enjoyed with an amazing four-centimeter-thick steak. We will show that Spanish tapas are merely a playful kindergarten version compared to Basque pintxos, and we will unexpectedly drop in on the crew of a fishing boat right in the middle of their lunch. Be assured that seasoned Basque fishermen truly know what the world tastes like on a plate—something our Rasťo experienced firsthand.
