Cooking rooted in Zamora, with game from La Culebra and Fuentesaúco chickpeas, at seven tables on a pedestrian street beside the Plaza de Viriato; open at midday on Sunday.

Cuzeo is at Rúa de los Francos 6, a pedestrian street in Zamora's old town, beside the Plaza de Viriato. It opened in 2019 and is headed by Adrián, its chef, trained at the Zamora Hospitality School, with experience learned at El Empalme in Rionegro del Puente and at Lera, in Castroverde de Campos, and stints at Arzak and at La Botica in Matapozuelos. The restaurant is stone-built and small, with seven tables. The Michelin Guide includes it among its inspectors' recommendations.
Cooking from the land
The house starts from tradition and nearby produce, above all from Zamora: Fuentesaúco chickpeas, Sanabria boletus, Zamora cheese and plenty of game from the Sierra de la Culebra and the province, with contemporary technique and charcoal grilling. Cuzeo says its best way of welcoming you is the tasting menu, and presents it as a journey through the season.
The tasting menu: "El latido del Duero"
It costs €67, VAT included, and changes each season. This autumn's runs from a toast of saffron milk caps with pine nuts and moscatel and a mushroom fritter in garlic, to a wild boar pâté en croûte, Tierra de Campos lentils with wood pigeon, charcoal-grilled sea bass with cod tripe, wild rabbit royale and charcoal-grilled venison, with two desserts: sheep's-milk rice pudding and orange-cream tocinillo de cielo with palo cortado. It is served to the whole table and must be started before 15:00 at midday and 21:30 in the evening.
The short menu
For those who prefer to choose, there is a short menu that changes with the moment: kimchi croquettes with Iberian coppa, pickled partridge with peppers roasted in a wood-fired oven, charcoal-grilled leek with Zamora cheese cream and cecina, smoked fallow deer tartare, Fuentesaúco chickpeas with Sanabria boletus, stewed wild boar shank, venison loin from the sierra with boletus, dry rice with wild boar rib, charcoal-grilled veal sweetbreads or Angus chop. For dessert, cheesecake with Zamora cheese or caramelised sheep's-milk rice pudding. The bread, made with Zamora flour, is charged at €2.
Opening hours
Wednesday to Saturday, lunch from 13:45 to 16:00 and dinner from 20:30 to 23:00; on Sunday, lunch only. Closed on Monday and Tuesday. With seven tables, always book: on its website or on 980 50 98 86.
Around it
From the Plaza de Viriato the Rúa de los Francos leads towards the cathedral and the castle. Before lunch, walk the Romanesque Mile through the churches of the old town.

Qué pedir: the game dishes from the Sierra de la Culebra when in season, or the tasting menu if you are not in a hurry.
