The saves stand in one city and most of them crowd the Parte Vieja. Ganbara, Borda Berri, Bar Nestor, La Cuchara de San Telmo and La Viña work the same few streets. Arzak sits out on the Irun road and Akelarre looks down from Igeldo.

The drives out take under half an hour. Astigarraga pours cider straight from the barrel at Petritegi and Zapiain, Mugaritz cooks above Errenteria, Elkano grills turbot on the harbor at Getaria, and Casa Julián sears its chuleta at Tolosa.

Bilbao sits an hour west along the coast. Rooms stand in the city and another looks over the water at Portugalete, Azurmendi cooks in the hills at Larrabetzu, and Asador Etxebarri works everything over embers up the Atxondo valley at Axpe.
