Hospitalet's L'Artesana Wins World Tripe Championship at San Sebastian Gastronomika

A neighborhood menu-of-the-day restaurant claims the eighth title with a finely balanced, slow-reduced recipe.

Overview

  • Héctor Barbero, Pau Pons and Romina Reyes took first place for L'Artesana / Artesana Santa Eulàlia in the eighth Campeonato Mundial de Callos, held as the opener at the Kursaal.
  • Their winning version features cap i pota with chickpeas, a ham and chorizo sofrito, Pimentón de la Vera and a long reduction that delivered precise balance and a clean, gelatinous texture.
  • L'Artesana is a modest Hospitalet eatery known for an affordable menu del día where callos remain a staple offering.
  • This was the team’s third appearance in a final that brought together ten chefs from across Spain and scored plates on flavor, texture and presentation.
  • A jury that included Elena Arzak and Sacha Hormaechea reached consensus on the winner, and the forum marked Bar Bergara’s 75th anniversary with a tribute.
