Bar Néstor is a ritual disguised as a bar. A narrow space in the Old Town where time is measured not in hours but in tomatoes, steaks, and two tortillas a day.

You still don't know what to order.

Every "best of San Sebastián" list says the same 10 things. None of them tell you which dish to get, at which place, or why it matters. You end up in a tourist trap paying €18 for a croqueta that wasn't worth the walk.

Pot Luck Food Trips fixes that.

One app. Every dish worth eating. Every spot worth visiting. Built by a chef who's spent 20 years eating his way through this city.

The chef behind the app

I'm Erich. I came to San Sebastián in 2005 as a young apprentice at Mugaritz, one of the world's top restaurants. After cooking on three continents and guiding 1,000+ food tours, I turned everything I know about this city's food into one app.

Erich's Story

I grew up in Venezuela and came to San Sebastián in 2005 as a young apprentice at Mugaritz, one of the world's top 50 restaurants.

After that I spent years cooking in Berlin, where I studied film and design, developing concepts and menus for restaurants across Europe.

Eventually I came back to San Sebastián. I worked as a full-time researcher and guest lecturer at the Basque Culinary Center, one of the world's leading gastronomy universities. I also launched Pot Luck Food Talks, a podcast about food culture and the people behind it.

After cooking on three continents, what I love most is showing people this city through its food. Over 1,000 tours later, with 310+ five-star reviews, I built this app. It's everything I tell people after the tour ends. The full list of dishes, places, and stories that guests kept calling "the best part of the experience."

Everything you need to eat like you live here.
