What are Pintxos or Pinchos?


Pintxos (pronounced "peen-chos") are a type of Basque/Spanish appetizer or snack, typically consisting of small, flavorful dishes served on small pieces of bread or skewers.

They are a popular culinary tradition in the Basque Country and other regions of Spain, similar to tapas but often characterized by their creative and diverse ingredients, offering a wide range of flavors and combinations.

Pintxos can include various ingredients such as seafood, cured meats, vegetables, and cheeses, and they are usually enjoyed in bars and taverns, often accompanied by a glass of wine or other beverages.

Barcelona has many excellent Pintxo bars.
