Ansots Basque Chorizos
Restaurant · Boise
560 W Main St, Boise, ID 83702, USA
"Dan, Tamara, and Ellie of the Ansotegui family offer traditional and contemporary Basque fare in the Old Boise Pioneer Building on Main Street. No stranger to Basque cuisine and culture, James Beard Award semifinalist Dan Ansotegui started Bar Gernika and the Basque Market in the 1990s. (Although he’s no longer associated with those establishments, they’re still popular anchors of the Basque Block just down the street.) Ansots offers a variety of sausages in appetizers and sandwiches (bocadillos), including the flavorful motzak chorizo with roasted garlic, as well as meatballs, croquetas, and roasted pepper pork belly with chorizero (Basque pepper) rub. They also cater and sell croquetas, chorizo, bacon, and other meats by the pound." - Scott Ki, Scott Wink
"You can’t visit Boise without stopping by the Basque Block. The Ansotegui family of Ansots Basque Chorizos has been in Idaho for more than a century." - Amanda Gabriele
