The men at the helm of Atrio José Antonio Polo and Toño Pérez, are two leading pioneers of Extremadura’s fledgling haute cuisine. When I inquired about the restaurant from a local, he promptly shook his hand in the limp-wristed, swinging pendulum fashion that is typical of Spaniards and indicates that something is expensive; then he added – as if to assuage my budgetary fears – that Atrio was the best restaurant in Extremadura.
The restaurant is run as efficiently as a military academy but maintains the elegance and air of a Victorian ballroom. The chef’s specialty dishes include the panceta y chipirones encebollados, which amounts to a delectable squid with bacon in a light potato cream sauce, and trigueros con crema de patatas, trufa y oreja de ibérico, a rare sirloin steak in potato cream sauce with truffles and topped with a pig’s ear.
