WRC’S RESTAURANT RECOMMENDATIONS!
Hoja Santa Simply put, it's one of the best Mexican restaurants in Barcelona. Albert Adrià and Mexican chef Paco Méndez approach popular Mexican tradition with an outlook and products that are both haute cuisine, and from there they manage to get surprising dishes such as the cep mushroom and truffle quesadilla, and the wagyu veal with chichilo mole. Where they really shine is in the gourmet work with vegetables, with dishes that play with the classics – try the pasilla mole with crunchy baby veg.

Pakta The adaptation of Nikkei gastronomy – that resulting from the evolution of the gastronomy of Japanese immigrants who settled in Peru in the late twentieth century – to the universe of the highly hedonistic, playful and El Bulli–like cuisine of Albert Adrià who has managed to coherently reinvent a cuisine that started out as a happy accident.
