No. 38 in the world · November 2026
Inakaya
No. 38The one to order off the fire
Robatayaki: a whole fish, the giant shiitake, and the potatoes in butter, passed to you on a long paddle
What it burns: A charcoal robata hearth
Cooks kneel behind the hearth and shout every order; theater as much as a meal.
Cook it at home
Whole grilled fish with garlic and chili oil (a la bilbaína)
45 min, 30 min hands-on · 2 to 3 people. The Getaria turbot, at home: a whole fish grilled on the bone stays juicy, and the sizzling garlic, chili and vinegar oil poured over at the end is the Basque finish. Turbot, branzino, sea bream or snapper all work; a fish basket makes turning easy.
