Sample Válor specials like goat's cheese, olive oil and partridge at this cosy bar-restaurant downhill from the main road. Seasonal treats might include local mushrooms or scrambled asparagus, while regional staples range from conejo al ajillo (rabbit in a garlic sauce) and delicate croquettes to enormous salads and bocadillos (filled rolls) stuffed with tortilla or jamón.
