‘Pick Up Pintxos’ is a street food outlet specialising in pintxos and small plates inspired by the Basque Country in Northern Spain. Owned by Gianni Modena – an inspirational young chef who was trained in Spain and retains his love for Spanish food. (hello@pickuppintxos.com).
Pintxos (pronounced pin-chos) are small bites packed full of flavour, a bit like tapas. The culture in the Basque Country is to have a selection of pintxos while socialising with friends.
Giannia asked me to create agate plates on which he could showcase his food and he wanted shapes such as triangles, ovals and trapeziums.
For a bit of fun I created him a fish plate to compliment his delicious sea food.
