Watch our fascinating video for a glimpse into an ancient skill that is still used daily in Spain.
Rising stolidly out of the beach, with the waves often lapping at it’s walls, is the Restaurante Sendra. It is a Mecca for seafood lovers the world over, because it takes great care of it’s basic ingredient; seafood.
You know this place is special before you walk in. In fact you would be amazed if it were anything but the best. The translucent Octopuses hanging to dry on the beach and swaying in the fresh, salty sea air, is all the clue needed.
We wanted to know a little more about the place and asked a member of staff if he would demonstrate how he prepares octopuses for drying. The result is the very short video below:-
How to butcher an octopus, an age old Mediterranean tradition.
So there you have it; Restaraunte Sendra may look a bit dull from the Rotes beach path, but it is well worth lingering over.
