"Open for: Lunch and dinner Price range: $$$ Veal tripe, trotters, and snout. Fried pig’s face. An omelet with brains or brined tongue salad. Offal has always had a beloved place in Spanish cookbooks and homes. But traditional dishes, considered outdated, have slowly disappeared up until recently. Chef Javi Estévez — who achieved fame for his participation in the first season of Spain’s Top Chef in 2013 —– filled the void in the culinary scene with the opening of this one-Michelin-star restaurant. Paying tribute to yesteryear’s flavors with today’s techniques, the chef manages to cook “adventurous” meats in ways that appeal to all audiences. Vibe check: For a casual tavern, book at the Duque de Sesto location. For a gastronomical experience, the restaurant at Modesto Lafuente is a better option." - Paula Móvil
