another #mystery spot

My previous post on the mysterious restaurant whose name I'm forbidden to share got me thinking about the other places I frequent but have been hestitant to talk about in public.  San Sebastián is a touristy place in the summer, I'm finding. And although, fortunately, there's plenty to go around and the city has avoided losing its character up to now, you still find yourself saving a little bit of the best for the locals.

But there's no harm in some photo love, right? Here's another favorite.

Roast suckling pig. Cold crisp simple salad.

Melty jamón ibérico de bellota.

¡Cígala!

Seared oyster mushrooms with a shrimp vinaigrette.

Morcilla and tender green peppers.

Sorry. Sworn to secrecy.
