Cantabrian Anchovies in Vinegar (Boquerones)
€8.50
Premium, hand-cleaned white anchovies with a sharp, refreshing garlic and herb marinade.
Tip: The quality of the vinegar is what makes these stand out. They are remarkably fresh. Mop up the leftover oil and vinegar with their bread — it's the local way.

Marinated Anchovies (Boquerones de la Llotja)
€8.50
White anchovies sourced from the local fish market and cured in-house.
Tip: You can really taste the freshness. They aren't rubbery like the pre-made ones. Best with a glass of their cold white wine.

Anchovies from L'Escala with Vinegar and Herbs
€12.00
Premium Mediterranean anchovies served with a bright botanical touch.
Tip: Very different from the canned ones. These are much more delicate and much less salty. The vinegar really lifts the flavor.
