Some highlights from Mirazur (3 Michelin *), currently number one on world’s 50 best list. Argentinian chef Mauro Colagreco cooks from the best produce the Med and the local terroir has to offer. In a way minimalist, his cooking is highly seasonal and is all about respecting the ingredients. Some…

Some of my favourite dishes at Quique Dacosta restaurant (3*) in Denia. (Fantastic cooking worth a special trip!)

Last night at Güeyu Mar, another seafood temple, that’s been on my list for a while. The simple restaurant steps away from a beach specializes in the local seafood, namely deep seawater “Rey fish”, that is very similar to or same (?) as Splendid Alfonsino or Kinmedai ( キンメダイ). The…

Highlights from D’Berto, one of the places I’ve been wanting to visit for a while, known for exceptional quality seafood caught from the local Galician seas.
