The owner of Tram Tram in Barcelona recommended we try Alkimia. A restaurant we hadn’t heard of at the time.
When we arrived we choose the Grand Festival menu as we expected this to be lots of small portions.
The first 3 courses arrived and they were wonderful. The fourth course arrived and it was a fish risotto that filled the bowl! Oh dear this is going to get tough. Please let the next course be meat…..oh my god I’m not sure I can get through this. Then another fish course….argh. By the time we got to the final dessert I had tears rolling down my cheeks as it tasted of fish!
I don’t doubt the quality of the cooking (minus the fishy dessert). The lesson here is be careful when you order the Grand Festival. In this case we literally had bitten off more than we could chew.
