Traditional Basque cookery workshop

At the foot of the mountain of Jaizkibel, on a terrace lying right beside the sea in Pasai Donibane, is the Ziaboga restaurant, an attractive meeting point for lovers of the most authentic cuisine.

Start with a coffee and an introductory talk by our cook, Álex Barcenilla, and his team, ready to welcome you to a workshop where you'll make some of the most famous dishes in traditional Basque cuisine, such as "chipirones" (small squids in their ink) or hake in green sauce.

Once you've rolled up your sleeves, if the weather has allowed fishing, you'll get to meet Juanito Makazaga, a veteran squid fisherman who will join the workshop to show you his catch and let you in on all the secrets of this, our star product.

With the food freshly prepared and the table laid, you'll go into the dining room to enjoy a delicious meal in a cosy, relaxed atmosphere.
