Radis
"Radis is one of those places in which a young chef (Juanjo Mesa) with the restaurant business in his blood, experience working in leading restaurants behind him, and an undeniable desire to please, has set up a business with a view to revolutionising the city’s dining options. Mesa recently won the title of “Best Olive Oil Chef” at the “Jaén, Paraíso Interior” contest organised as part of the San Sebastián Gastronomika festival, and in this small, centrally located eatery with a contemporary bistro feel and open kitchen, he puts all his efforts into a surprise tasting menu (to which extra dishes can be added) inspired by tradition and his childhood memories. He has brought this cuisine fully up to date thanks to strong technique, a delicate touch and superbly crafted sauces and jus. The name of the restaurant stems from the French word for radish – the chef’s nickname happens to be El Rabanito (“radish” in Spanish)!" - Michelin Inspector
