Hi! We’re Anamarie and Mikel, and we’re proud to be first generation Basque Americans. Our Basque heritage has always been a vital part of our lives, especially when it comes to the incredible food that our culture has to offer.
Food is not only a means of sustenance for us, it’s a way of connecting with our roots and expressing our love for our heritage. Both of us share a deep passion for gastronomy, which has led us on a fascinating journey as entrepreneurs. Over the years, we have successfully owned and operated various businesses, including a much-loved restaurant recognized for its delicious Basque cuisine.
Now, we want to share our expertise and experiences with fellow restaurant owners and food enthusiasts like you. Through our website, we aim to provide valuable insights, tips, and inspiration to help you thrive in the restaurant industry and celebrate the joy of food and the cultures it comes from. Join us on this culinary adventure, and let's savor the flavors of life together!
The captivating Basque Country is nestled between Spain and France. This unique region boasts a culinary scene that is as rich as its cultural heritage. One of the key factors behind this gastronomic excellence is the region's advantageous geography.
With a picturesque seacoast along the Bay of Biscay, Basque chefs have access to the freshest seafood imaginable. Moreover, the verdant hills and fertile lands of the Basque Country offer a bountiful harvest of fresh produce and the choicest cuts of beef,lamb and pork, contributing to its culinary prowess. This combination of coastal bounty and fertile lands lays the foundation for the Basque Country's exceptional culinary delights.
A Culinary Journey Amidst Sea and Hills
“Food for us comes from our relatives, whether they have wings or fins or roots. That is how we consider food. Food has a culture. It has a history. It has a story. It has relationships.”
