Gastrobar with an open kitchen next to the Plaza Mayor, with tapas, half portions and grill; Michelin Bib Gourmand and open Sunday lunchtime.

Bambú is a gastrobar at Calle Prior 4, a few metres from the Plaza Mayor of Salamanca, with the kitchen open to the bar and a grill that rules the menu. It is run by the cook José Manuel Pascua, for whom fire is the essence of the house. The Michelin Guide recommends it. You eat tapas at the bar, with half portions or with dishes to share, without rules: the house sums it up as tapas and grills.
The untouchables of the bar
The tapas side is what gives the place its fame. The truffled duck egg, awarded the Pincho de Oro in 2017, costs €5.50; the Iberian ham croquette, €3.60 each, and the tiger mussel one, €3.50. There is seared scallop with chalaca (€6.50), grilled pincho moruno (€7.60), grilled pork rib (€7) and bravas (€11). Among the less classic dishes, a seared avocado with pipirrana (€17.50), ragù cannelloni with seasonal mushrooms (€16), a smoked pastrami bikini (a toasted sandwich) or a grilled pork belly mollete (€8.50). Potato and onion omelette, €15.
The grill
If you are going to sit down, the grill is what to order: veal entrecôte (€25), acorn-fed Iberian pluma (€27), Iberian presa in gochujang style (€29), beef sirloin (€28) or a thirty-day aged mature beef T-bone, at €7.50 per 100 grams. Side dishes are extra: chips, €6, or confit peppers, €7.50. There is grilled fish according to the market and a casserole of the day, such as stewed Iberian cheek (€25.50) or Pedrosillano chickpeas (€22).
For dessert, cheesecake (€9), salted caramel coulant or roast pineapple with namelaka.
Closed Monday and Tuesday
It opens at lunchtime from 13:00 to 16:00 and in the evening from 20:00 to midnight, and is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. The Michelin Guide gives Sunday at lunchtime only: confirm when you book. Book on its website or on 666 523 523; it is often full, Sunday included. The Michelin Guide states that it accepts dogs throughout the premises.
Around
You are a minute from the Plaza Mayor and five from the Casa de las Conchas. For a more leisurely meal of Salamanca cooking, ConSentido is on the other side of the square, next to the Central Market.

Qué pedir: the truffled duck egg, the Iberian ham croquette and a grilled meat to share.
