El 7 de Sillerías

Extremadura


With a friendly local buzz, snug wood-beamed interior and elegantly presented traditional fare, this cafe-bar-restaurant just southeast off the Plaza Mayor is one of Trujillo's better eateries. Tasty menu choices include Extremaduran jamón/cheese boards, plenty of Iberian pork and huge parrilladas de verduras (grilled vegetable platters). The cafe-bar area dishes out raciones (large plate servings), bocadillos (filled rolls) and tostas (topped toast).
