The area’s history as a merchants’ and craftsmen’s quarter is still alive in its vibrant atmosphere, making it the perfect setting for an evening of cultural and culinary discovery.
Standing in the shadow of Santa Maria del Mar, you’ll take in the grandeur of one of Barcelona’s most beloved Gothic landmarks. This stunning basilica, built by the city's medieval merchants and shipbuilders, has witnessed centuries of history and remains a symbol of El Born’s enduring spirit.
Slip through a discreet passageway to uncover one of the city’s best-kept dining secrets. Here, you’ll experience a curated tasting where bold flavors and time-honored recipes come together in a menu inspired by Catalonia’s rich gastronomic heritage.
