Savor the Flavors of Winnemucca: Nevada’s Hidden Gem
A Taste of Basque Tradition
Winnemucca Basque restaurants serve up Basque cuisine with a combination of savory flavors, complete with a hearty infusion of garlic. Paella (a rice dish with chicken, seafood, vegetables, and spices) and chorizo (a spicy sausage) are as familiar to Winnemucca as burgers and fries.
For the true Basque dining experience, you can eat family style, sitting at a long table and sharing food and stories with other restaurant patrons.
Wash your meal down with a Picon Punch—a bold 19th-century cocktail with deep roots in Nevada’s Basque communities. Considered the Silver State’s unofficial state drink, it’s a rare find outside Nevada.
