Tarta de queso, Basque cheesecake baked high until the top burns dark, cut in thick wedges. One slice each, after the pintxos, the bar bites.

Basque · pintxos · cheesecake · Parte Vieja, San Sebastian

31 de Agosto Kalea 3, 20003 Donostia-San Sebastián

A Parte Vieja bar cooking Basque food since the fifties, where Santiago Rivera made the burnt cheesecake its site calls the original. It still comes from the same oven.
