Parrillan Borough Yards (London)

Tucked away beside the bustling Borough Market, there is a Spanish sanctuary named Parrillan that whisks you away to the heart of Spain. The vibe is like stepping into a warm, inviting Spanish courtyard, right in London.

Now, let’s talk about the food. The Pan Con Tomate – a simple dish but when the ripe tomatoes meet the crispy, olive oil-drenched bread, it’s a match made in culinary heaven. The Pimientos Asados are a smoky whisper of Spain; they blister and char, carrying the stories of Spanish summers on their skins.

The grill section is where Parrillan truly shines. The Iberico pork arrives with the sort of charred edges that whisper secrets of the Spanish grill. The squid is fresh. It's like it danced in the ocean, leapt onto the grill, and presented itself on your plate, tender and kissed by fire. And a bite of the milk fed lamb pulls you into a Spanish grandma’s kitchen where the recipe has been perfected over generations. Pair it with a glass of robust Rioja Reserva, and you have a match made in culinary heaven.

The clinking of glasses, the shared plates, the laughter under the glow of fairy lights are like a warm embrace from Spain. Parrillan is authentic, unpretentious and heartwarming. This is where memories are made, one bite at a time.
