"We like to think there’s an anchovy pintxo for everyone at Txepetxa, even those who aren’t big on tinned fish. For decades, this small bar has been putting all kinds of anchovy flavor combos on sliced baguette, some of which might raise a few eyebrows. There are savory bites featuring anchovies topped with vinegary giardiniera and tapenade, and sweeter options like foie gras with apple compote and blueberry jam that tastes twice as sweet from all the fish’s saltiness, making it pop with flavor. Anticipate ordering half the menu, because each pintxo will sound delicious or too intriguing not to try. Also, prepare to make eye contact with a signed Glenn Close poster. " - sylvio martins
