Traditional Basque cuisine has something that cannot be improvised: time, produce and a way of understanding the table that comes from generations of cooking.
Basque culinary tradition is not nostalgia: it's discernment. Knowing which ingredient to use, how to treat it and which recipe does it justice — that knowledge is what defines a kitchen like Txakolina's.
At number 26, Cava Baja, you'll find Txakolina, a restaurant combining the best of Basque cuisine with the energy of the La Latina neighbourhood. Two identities that complement each other perfectly.
