Inspired by Lennox Hastie’s time in the foothills of the Basque country, Gildas is a homage to the original pintxo created in San Sebastian of three simple ingredients; a guindilla pepper, an olive, and an anchovy – a creation which coincided with the screening of the eponymous film starring the stunning Rita Hayworth, Gilda, at the San Sebastian Film Festival in 1946.
