Aranda de Duero is the nerve centre of the Ribera del Duero region of Burgos and one of the most emblematic towns in the region.
It is known for its wines and wineries and for its spectacular historical and artistic heritage. But unquestionably, one of the great reasons to visit Aranda de Duero is its delicious gastronomy.
There is no doubt that the traditional suckling lamb roasted in a wood-fired oven and accompanied by a good Aranda cake is the star product. But we invite you to discover the great gastronomic offer that you can find in this beautiful town that is only 10 km. away from our house.
Isilla street and the surrounding area is full of restaurants and tapas and pinchos bars where you will be able to lick your fingers.
But as the offer is so wide, you might need a little help. So here are our personal recommendations.
