We weren’t sure what to have or to even eat here but the friendly waitress asked if we wanted cochinillo we’d have to order now as it took roughly 30 mins to cook. We decided to and came back after a wet walk. We were not disappointed. The cochinillo in the menu del dia (menu of the day) was fantastic. I’ve had a few in Segovia and this was up there as one of the best. It’s cooked slightly differently but my, the bits between the meat and the skin were something very special: almost fused to the skin. So perfectly cooked. I could tell you that the starter of creamy white beans was really good or that the flan de queso dessert was really delicious but it doesn’t matter. Get the cochinillo.

I recommend to order a salad as side dish and some digestives at the end to facility the digestion.
