Basque cuisine question?

Question

I'm spending a few days in San Sebastian. And I heard that it is the best place for food in Spain..

Could you reccomend some specialties, please.. I'm Muslim so I can only eat Halal..

So I would like to know about fish of vegetarian dishes..

Could you tell me the names of some of the dishes in Basque language please..

Also what is is the basque word for pork (I need to know that to avoid it!)

Thank you

Answer 1

It is probably the best place for food in Spain. The best are mostly fish dishes Some dishes:

Bacalao a la Vizcaina  -- Salt cod in red pepper  sauce

Bacalao  al Pil -- Pil -- Salt Cod in Creamy Garlic Sauce

Merluza Koskera -- Hake in green sauce

Marmitako -- bonito and Tomato soup

Baby Squid ??

Not sure what the word for pork is in Basque -- it's puerco in Spanish also Jamon. They understand Spanish....

Also not sure about Halal there -- I gave you a couple of links where you can get more info.
