Food

San Sebastian is the center of the new Basque cuisine. Seafood is, of course, one of the main ingredients in traditional dishes using sea bream and hake cheeks. Chick-peas, garbanzo beans, asparagus, olive oil, garlic, corn, rice and regional cheeses are common ingredients blended with sauces and spices mixed with meat like lamb, pork beef or poultry to create amazing mouthwatering dishes.

San Sebastian has a multitude of "Caserones", villa style houses/restaurants where they serve typical Basque cuisine based on their rich gastronomic traditions. Breakfast is usually served around 9:30am, lunch is served between 2:00 and 3:00 pm followed by a long siesta, and finally dinner in only after 9:00 pm.

San Sebastian makes several famed wines and they are usually had with meals. The prices for these wines range from affordable to very expensive. Apple cider and 'Txakoli,' a dry white wine are the most popular drinks.
