Zarajos as served at Morryssom
One of my favourite tapas dishes is Zarajo, braided sheep’s intestines wrapped around a vine branch and usually broiled, though often fried, sometimes smoked, and served hot with a wedge of lemon.
Very tasty.
Zarajos are not common in Barcelona — the dish originated in Cuenca, the city in Castilla–La Mancha.
They go well with a beer, though I recommend you try them with a glass of rough, strong red wine.
Two places which I know serve zarajo are:
- Morryssom’s — one of my favourite lunch restaurants and tapas places — 3,40€.
- Bar L’Amistat, Carrer de Torrijos, 13, in Gràcia — 3,90€.
