Sabiñánigo is a locality that is strategically located at the entrance of the Tena Valley and nearby the Aragón river. This location was one of the main reasons why the Romans decided to settle there more than two thousand years ago. The food from Sabiñanigo is based on pillars such as the game meat, fishing, cattle raising and the local orchards.
When eating in Sabiñánigo products that come from from the mountains, orchards and rivers are combined giving place to delicious dishes such as grilled fish, lamb and ternasco. Also cold meat is produced in the area giving place to good sausages and tortetas. Some typical recipes are the Pollo al Chilindrón and the Jarretes guisados that come along some vegetables. In addition, most of the restaurants and bars from Sabiñánigo offer migas and patatas encebolladas (potatoes with onions).
Among the fishes the most important ones are the trout and the cod. Wines from Aragón accompaign each meal and have the DO such as the Somontano.
For those who love homemade food,pinchos and buffets Lovely Pirenarium offers this and much more. It is easy to eat at a reasonable price.What we like the most it that it offers cañas (beer) at 50 cents!
The options for eating in Sabiñánigo are very varied and differents. The restaurant La Estivia (inside the hotel Villa Virginia) is a perfect option if you look for a delicious servide and a discrete space where to try local high quality gastronomy with some modern touches. Try the Chef Croquettes, the Hamburguer with chistorra and gorgonzola heart and the Cod cube with tender garlic.
Another option is the restaurant Pradas where you can try a delicious menu full of raciones of seasonal products and a very good service.
