Why we point you here

Just outside San Sebastián, one of the world's ten best restaurants — and one of its most stubbornly experimental.

Mugaritz is less a restaurant than an open question about what dinner can be. Chef Andoni Luis Aduriz builds a long, ever-shifting tasting menu — a fair amount of it eaten with your hands — and there's a glossary on the table he wrote with his staff and even past guests, which tells you how much he enjoys bending the form. Expect conceptual, genuinely surprising plates from a two-Michelin-star kitchen that's held its place in the World's 50 Best top ten for years. Come ready to go along with it rather than order from it — that's the fun.
