"We grabbed delicious sandwiches stuffed with potato tortillas, and cold cervezas (for the adults) from a fantastic hole-in-the-wall place, full of university students the day we went there, called Bodega La Pascuala. If you go, expect crowds and a bit of a wait before you get your sandwiches."

"They have a wide range of sandwiches , such as the “Elena” which consists of an omelette, cheese, bacon and garlic oil, among others. So you know, you mustn’t leave Valencia without tasting an authentic esmorzar."

"They have a wide range of sandwiches, such as the popular “Pascuala” which consists of tenderloin, bacon, cheese, onion and fresh tomato rubbed onto the bread. So you know, you mustn’t leave Valencia without tasting an authentic esmorzar."

"The competition for the city’s best is fierce, but the super-sized baguettes at Bodega La Pascuala are legendary. Filled with everything, jamón and goats cheese included, the sandwiches at this faded blue-tiled bar near the beach attract a steady crowd. Follow the locals and order a cold caña (small beer) to wash it down with."

"Once you get into it, you notice that the bread, to one's delight, is crispy, and the homemade tomato and olive oil give it an exceptional flavour. As for the mixture, the sandwich itself stands out for having grilled horse steaks (similar to veal, but tastier and softer) which, together with the cheese and onion, give it even more flavour."

"Apart from the massive baguettes, La Pascuala, is also infamous for serving horsemeat. My favourite bocadillo, and probably the most famous, is called Super (horse fillet, bacon, cheese, onion and brushed tomato)."

"This local institution, around since 1921, is famous for its ‘XXL’ almuerzo options featuring truly enormous bocadillos, filled with horse meat, served with olives and peanuts. Drop in if you’re visiting the famous Old Fisherman’s quarter of El Cabanyal, or sleep off this mighty snack afterwards on the golden sand of the nearby Playa Las Arenas beach."

"This legendary bodega brings punters not only from the barrio, but from all over Valencia. And you’d better turn up with an appetite because even the «half-sized» freshly-made bocadillos are something to write home about. A recommendation? The Super - horsemeat, bacon, cheese, onion and tomato- is one of the most popular choices."

"Bodega La Pascuala is a culinary institution of Valencia, famous for its giant bocadillos. Founded in 1921, it’s a pilgrimage spot for those who love their almuerzo, the Spanish version of brunch. Try the Super, their notorious horse meat bocadillo."
