Two Stars: Excellent cooking
The last thing you expect in an old stone mansion such as this, which has witnessed the passing through of pilgrims heading to Santiago de Compostela along the Way of St James over the centuries, is innovative cuisine that is well worth a break in your journey. Its interior is both rustic and contemporary in style, with two separate sections: the informal dining area at the entrance (Origen restaurant), dedicated to the traditional and inexpensive set menu; and the more refined gourmet dining room upstairs (with just three tables) where you can eat while watching the chefs at work. David Yárnoz prepares sincere, creative cuisine that is highly appealing in terms of both its presentation and flavour, and always showcases the outstanding produce of the Navarra region (pork from Lekunberri, vegetables from Tudela, trout from the Baztan area, game from de Errea, eggs from the Iza valley etc) and a strong commitment to the local region. This is demonstrated on a single surprise menu (Clásicos & Evolución) featuring the restaurant’s signature dishes alongside its more recent creations.

Landscape on a Plate: David Yárnoz Dishes Up Eco-Conscious Cuisine from Northern Spain to Taipei
Navarre native David Yárnoz boasts almost encyclopedic knowledge about his birthplace, and he knows how to make the most of it in the kitchen. His fine dining venture El Molino de Urdániz operates in both a small Navarrese village and a high-rise hotel of Taipei. In both of them, diners can expect dishes evoking the beauty of the northern Spanish countryside.
