San Sebastian. When I was recently asked to write about the top five food trips for 2008 San Sebastain was right up there. now the BBC food blog has joined the fray.

“This is the city with more Michelin stars per head of the population than anywhere else in Europe and a reputation for being obsessed with food…

Over the course of three days we hopped from bar to bar and in each one we had fantastic food, served quickly and with great pride…

All this grazing is amazingly good value, but if you start to yearn for a more leisurely pace of eating then many of the bars have restaurant tables but you will pay more.”
