The ultimate balance of smoky, sweet, and savoury. 🇪🇸✨

Meet our new Txistorra special: a juicy, paprika-rich coiled Basque sausage resting on a bed of creamy mustard seed mash. We’ve topped it with a rich Pedro Ximénez (PX) sherry apple jam to add the perfect touch of complex sweetness, and finished it with pickled guindillas for that essential acidic bite.

The Secret to a Perfect Spanish Paella 🇪🇸🥘

At Duende, we know the soul of an authentic Paella comes down to sourcing the absolute best ingredients. That’s why we’re proud to use premium La Boqueria Albufera D.O.P. rice straight from Valencia, supplied by our friends at

This unique grain acts like a sponge, pulling the rich, smoky flavours of their incredible authentic Spanish Chorizo and our savoury broth right into its core—all while keeping that perfect, firm bite.

From the rice to the chorizo, every pan is a true taste of Spain. Join us in Leederville this week to experience it for yourself!
