La Parrilla de San Lorenzo

Valladolid


Both a stand-up bar and a much-lauded restaurant in the evocative setting of a former 16th-century monastery, La Parilla de San Lorenzo specialises in upmarket Castilian cuisine (hearty stews, legumes and steaks). Check out the historic grill and giant domed oven, used specifically for roasting lamb and suckling pig. Reservations recommended.
