Having Tapas in Eras de Renueva

El Chorco is one of the classics in the Eras tapas area. It's across the street from La Junta de Castilla y León. It's always full of people, because the tapa servings are generous. As in other places, you can choose from several, but I always ask for the toasted scorpion fish cake (delicious). It's decorated like an inn, with wood, stone and wall paintings, but there are some modern elements in terms of painting and lighting.

El bar El Chorco es uno de los bares con más famas por su tapeo en la ciudad de León, y en este caso se encuentra algo más retirado del centro, en la zona que se denomina de La Junta, al estar justo enfrente de la Junta de Castilla y León, y además a pocos metros de monumentos tan representativos como es el MUSAC o el Parador de San Marcos. El Chorco ya se ha hecho un hueco en el tapeo leonés y ha alcanzado tanta fama que normalmente a hora punta es decir a las 14,30 o las 20,30 horas resulta totalmente imposible encontrar un hueco donde poder pedir algo. En mi última visita de mi tierriña descubrí que además de bar El Chorco también funciona como restaurante poniendo menú del día, cocido todos los jueves y además de una pequeña carta de picoteo, cosa que nunca hubiera imaginado, porque en lo que a mi respecta sólo he ido un par de veces a desayunar (por 2,00 euros te dan café, zumo, tortilla o bocadillos) y por supuesto a probar sus estupendas tostas. Entre mis tapas preferidas destacan sus especialidades las tostas que las hay de todo: De cecina, de tortilla francesa de chorizo, de jamón, pastel de cabracho, morcilla, de queso con anchoas, etc...
The bar The Chorco is one of the bars with more fames for its tapas bars in the city of Leon, and in this case is somewhat removed from the center, in the area known as La Junta, being right in front of the Board Castilla y Leon, and also a few meters as representative as is the MUSAC or the Parador de San Marcos monuments. The Chorco already made their way into the leonine tapas and has become so famous that usually peak time ie at 14.30 or 20.30 is totally impossible to find a place where you can order something. On my last visit my tierrina I discovered that in addition to bar the Chorco also works as a restaurant setting menu of the day, cooked every Thursday and besides a small letter pecking, which would have never imagined, because as far as I"m concerned only I"ve been a few times for breakfast (for 2.00 euros you get coffee, juice, omelet or sandwiches) and of course to try their great toast. Among my favorite tapas specialties include toasts that has everything: beef jerky, sausage French omelette, ham, scorpion fish cake, sausage, cheese with anchovies, etc ...

Two dinners with wine

Con dos vinos cenas

Estoy de acuerdo con todo lo dicho anteriormente pero creo que falta el siguiente matiz: Las tapas son gratis. Te dan una cuando pides un vino, caña o consumición. Un vino bueno aproximadamente 1,25€ y una "peazo tapa" a elegir por ti entre las diferentes variedades. Total dos vinos= dos tapas y has "cenao". Aunque haya mucha gente te atienden rápido. Las tapas de calidad y hermosas. En los locales de al lado encontrareis un trato y unas tapas de similares características . Disfrutadlas.
I agree with all the above but I think you are missing the following nuance: The covers are free. You get one when you order a wine, beer or drink. A good wine about 1.25 € and "peazo cover" for you to choose between different varieties. Total two wines = two caps and has "CENAO". Although many people have you treated fast. The quality and beautiful covers. In the premises next door you will find a deal and tapas with similar characteristics. Enjoy them.
