My favorite place to visit in Spain - San Sebastián

The first time I came across San Sebastian, I was watching a French movie on the Bravo channel - 'Winter in Lisbon'. It is about a pianist who fell for the wrong woman, with lovely jazz music performed by the late Dizzy Gillespie. In the movie, the night view of La Concha Beach is so magnificent, I promised myself that some day I would travel to that part of Spain. So far I have been there five times, I really enjoy the food, the walk along the beach and everything else...

Good resto tips, most places are "no Arzak", but I thought Akelare was pretty awesome. Karl
