To please the cultured and curious palate, an explosion of small sampling is the way to go. Proving to be ahead of its time, Spain has been the pioneer of cooking up a mélange of pintxos and tapas to offer. Meanwhile, in Manila, a kusinero (as he likes to call himself) takes inspiration from these Spanish starters and brings together a variety of glorious bite-sized snacks pierced onto a piece of bread… and more.
Bar Pintxos Y Mas is one of South’s secret neighborhood tapas bar serving authentic Catalan and Basque-inspired dishes by Miguel Vecin and Tinchu Gonzalez.
The difference between tapas and pintxos? In the cities of Granada, Madrid, and Seville, all small portions of appetizers are called tapas. But in the Basque region of Spain, pintxos are served skewered onto a piece of bread. And luckily for both first-timers and Spanish food lovers alike, here at Bar Pintxos, you can get both.
Insider Tip: Always ask for the espacialidad for the day. Owner Mig Vecin is always looking into creating something new and special based on what's available.
