As foodies, amateur chefs, avid restaurant-goers and two+-months-in-advance resy makers, my husband and I finally made the pilgrimage to the so-called food mecca, San Sebastián, Spain. I had read all of the reviews and listened to all the raves, rants and endless comparisons, so it was time to check it all out firsthand and see what all of the fuss was about. The coastal Basque region is home to the highest number of Michelin stars per capita in the world and boasts a lively pintxos scene to boot (more on that later). Although the contrary would be a far more fascinating story, I have to admit San Sebastián was a memorable experience that most certainly lived up to the hype.
