Tradition, cutting-edge, flavour, attitude and passion, along with a consistent approach, define to perfection the cooking of Jordi Cruz. In his elegant restaurant boasting views of a tranquil garden dotted with some amazing works of contemporary art, he offers diners a unique gastronomic experience that constantly evolves in line with ingredients from the changing seasons. These are always combined with his technical ability as he revisits Mediterranean flavours with a nod to influences from elsewhere around the globe. The experience here, which begins with appetisers in the kitchen, is centred around a single tasting menu featuring new recipes alongside the restaurant’s renowned signature dishes. One of his extraordinary dishes is his tribute to Le Petit Prince, writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s iconic fable, which features a half sphere of Crema Catalana with nitro/lio creamy popcorn, burnt caramel ice-cream and rice water.
