Concept
Basque cusine is neither elite, complicated nor lavish. Its merit is based upon the bounty of fresh ingredients readily available throughout the region and expert preparation.
Nestled between the Pyrenees Mountains and the Bay of Biscay, the Basque region teems with superb seafood, magnificent meats, fresh fruits and vegetables and exquisite cheeses through all four seasons. The area is also home to a rich wine culture as well as a long-established tradition of cider making.
By successfully recreating all of these elements in Philadelphia, Tinto is an homage to the long-standing benchmark of excellence set by Basque tradition.
