If La Cadiera was in the United States, we would say it had "Continental Cuisine."…read more They call themselves "cocina montanesa" which means mountain cuisine. Well, Jaca is in the Pyrenees, and they do cook. So I guess anything that comes out of their kitchen is "mountain cuisine". I had bacalhau gratinee. My wife had fish with langostino and clams. I am sure they went out of the kitchen to the nearest mountain stream to catch the langostino and the clams. * * * That said, it is a nice enough place and we were happy to eat there. Most of the restaurants in Jaca are local bars or tapas places, so it was nice to get a straightforward sit-down upscale restaurant. Prices in Jaca are dirt cheap for just about everything - but the quality is still good. Two people had appetizers, main courses, desserts, wine and an after dinner drink - for 60 euros start to finish and we were happy with what we had. I had a pernil (leg of veal) with spanish pepper and thinly sliced potatoes (perfectly lovely), and bacalhau gratinee (serviceable enough). The stars of the show were desserts and final drinks. My wife had a chaqueca (apple tart) with chocolate sauce and tangerine sorbet that left her dissolved in puddles of pleasure. I went the cheese and strong spirits route : a queso de Vale Rio and an orujo. Queso de Vale Rio is an strong bitter bacterial white cheese with the consistency of a Camembert and a crust covered in ash. It had all of the strength of an old Brie with none of the mellowness and warmth. These bacteria have come to fight. Orujo is a Spanish brandy made by distilling the residues that remain when you press grapes to make wine. Orujo the irresistable force. Queso de Vale Rio the immovable object. These two powerhouse tastes battled in my mouth like Godzilla vs. Mothra. To be sure, I could have gotten the same combo in a tapas bar, if they stocked both items and I had known what to order. But it was quite fine to have them here. And the rest of the meal was a perfectly respectable warm-up to the final fireworks. Don't count on getting any esoteric montanese dishes ... but La Cadiera can guarantee a night of pleasant gastronomy. And the cheese selection is really strong.
