The Pan de coca con tomate, sal y aceite de oliva virgen is a classic Catalan bread topped with ripe tomato, salt, and rich virgin olive oil, offering a simple yet vibrant taste. Nuestra “Gilda” de bacalao offers a delightful bite of cod, olive, and pepper, inspired by the traditional Basque pintxo.

For a sophisticated palate, the Texturas de alcachofa con jamón ibérico y foie combines artichoke, Iberian ham, and foie gras in a harmonious texture play, while the Coca de foie con manzana caramelizada y ensalada de contrastes balances foie gras with caramelized apple and a refreshing salad contrast.
Mains
The main courses elevate traditional Catalan flavors with inventive twists. The Canelón de calabacín relleno de brandada de bacalao y ajo negro is a delicate zucchini cannelloni filled with a luscious cod brandade and infused with the deep notes of black garlic. Indulgence awaits in the Huevos fritos con panceta, corteza crujiente y patatas soufflés, pairing fried eggs with crispy bacon and airy potato soufflés for a comforting yet refined dish. For those who appreciate the rich flavors of Catalan omelettes, the Tortilla abierta con pan con tomate, jamón, alcachofas y calçots combines a traditional open omelet with bread topped with tomato, ham, artichokes, and the unique taste of calçots — a beloved local spring onion. Culinary craftsmanship shines in the Canelones de pollo de corral con bechamel, featuring free-range chicken enveloped in a creamy béchamel sauce, and its luxurious sibling, Canelones de pollo de corral trufados, which adds a decadent layer of truffle aroma to this traditional favorite.
