This restaurant located in Barcelona's Mandarin Oriental Hotel is run by Raül Balam, the son of famous Catalan chef Carme Ruscalleda and her husband, Toni. Not surprisingly, the cuisine pays respect to Balam's culinary lineage: a Catalan cuisine with numerous references to traditional recipes, which he enhances with bursts of creativity that rely on contemporary techniques. The quality of the ingredients is high, and they are prepared with care and respect. Both a la carte and thematic tasting menus are on offer.
