Saragosa cheap and delicious restaurant
đŽ Bermellon: Zaragozaâs Happy AccidentâBetter Than the Original Plan! Our Zaragoza day trip was packed to the minute (check out my last post for the full itinerary), but we skipped booking a restaurant⊠big mistake. By the time we trekked over in the heat, our first choice was fully booked. Cue plan B: the restaurant next door. Wow. Same rave reviews, cheaper weekday menus, and more diverse dishes. Sometimes lifeâs best finds are unplanned! đœïž The Weekday Menus (Total Steals!) Two options, both budget-friendly: Menu Aragones (the cheaper one): Fills you up but has fixed dishesâtomato-onion salad (first course) + grilled meat (main). Simple, no frills. Menu del Dia (our pick!): Slightly pricier than the first but still cheaper than most spots, with local flavors and choices. Hereâs what we devoured: First courses: My friendâs migas de AragĂłn: Aragon-style fried breadcrumbs mixed with onions, minced meat, and a sunny-side-up egg đł. Crunchy, savory, and hearty. Mine: timbal de huevos rotos con patatas y jamĂłn: Classic broken eggs with crispy potatoes and hamârunny yolk + salty ham = perfection đ„. Mains: Friendâs parrillada: A platter of grilled meats đâjuicy, charred, and shareable (though they didnât want to). Mine: ternasco a la aragonesa: Aragon-style lamb đ„©âtender, mild, and full of herb flavor. Drinks: Water or a glass of red wine đ· included. Soda or beer đ» cost extra. Since we chose water, the owner treated us to coffee âïž and tea đ”âso sweet! Desserts: Friendâs lava cake đ«: Gooey center, warm, and rich. My blueberry yogurt đ: Obsessed. Handmade, not too sweet, with fresh berries and a drizzle of jam. So good I wanted seconds. đž Price & Pro Tips âŹ16.95 per personâinsane value, especially for the portions. We were 70-80% full after the first course! Cash onlyâthe only downside. We scraped together âŹ34, but come prepared. The owner is lovelyâshe kept calling us âmis chicasâ (my girls) and checked in to make sure we liked the food. Fun fact: She used to run a herbal medicine shop and loves Chinese herbsâwe bonded over that! đ Location Win Right next to the Goya Museum, behind Plaza del Pilar. Perfect for a post-meal stroll to burn off that delicious food. #ZaragozaEats #BudgetTravel #HappyMistakes
