The word comes from the Basque language and often refers to small dishes or appetizers that are served on bread and usually held together with a toothpick. On a trip to San Sebastián and Bilbao, it is common to go between different bars and try several different pintxos in the same evening. The selection can vary from classic varieties with ham, cheese and seafood to more modern and creative combinations. Eating pintxos is not only about the food, but also about the atmosphere and the social aspect of the meal. For many, it is one of the highlights of a trip to the Basque Country and a popular way to experience the region's food culture.\u003C/p>\u003C/div>\u003Cp>\u003C/p>","8b0c77a5-5a71-11f1-997a-066d629c5c65","\u003Ch1>Basque Country Travel\u003C/h1>\u003Ch2> About our group trips to the Basque Country\u003C/h2>\u003Cp> The Basque Country is located in northern Spain, along the Bay of Biscay, and close to the border with France.
