 There's a very strong concentration of Basque culture still in Winnemucca today. There's actually several different dialects, and some of them they don't understand each other very well, which is a shock to me when I learned that. The Basque people brought with them not only tradition, they brought cuisine too. Dana says a visit to a Basque restaurant sometimes involves people requesting an adult beverage called a pecan, and apparently it's very strong.
