| Jamón ibérico (ibérico ham) is a
cured ham from Spain often called the king of ham. Of all
the ibérico hams, the highest quality is Bellota. In Spanish
it means “acorn”, and it’s made by pickling the meat of pigs
raised eating only acorns, then drying and curing it for
30-42 months. Bellota Bellota is definitely a shop you’ll
want to visit in Paris to taste this ham. If you continue
into the interior of the shop, past where the whole pigs are
hung up, there's a small zone where you can get a meal. As
you snack on some pickled olives or garlic, while perusing
the menu, your eyes will likely be drawn to the meals your
neighboring diners are eating. These are Bellota’s volcano
servings. Plates piled high with mountain-shaped heaps of
thinly sliced ham will be laid out all around. Underneath it
all is a lit candle, whose low temperature gently melts the
fat in the meat and practically doubles the delicious flavor
of it. For 38 euros you'll get a large enough quantity that
it's just right for

two people to share. And they
have delicious tapas made from the freshest
ingredients such as marinated green onions and red
peppers. They’re open all day long, so when your
stomach’s feeling empty, it’s a convenient place to
drop in for a short visit.
