The fine dining restaurant of the Mandarin Oriental Barcelona hotel is run by Raül Balam, son of the famous chef Carme Ruscalleda. In addition to his own undeniable individual talent, there are various culinary traits he has inherited from her.
Dominated by amber and gold tones, the modern dining area has a special table from which you can see the chefs at work in the kitchen. The cuisine here showcases the underlying creativity of Catalan tradition, healthy Mediterranean produce, the intrinsic distinctiveness of each flavour... all brought together in a themed set menu that, they say, represents exactly the kind of food they want to be creating. This unique tasting menu, dubbed "Disset" (17), aligns its 17 dishes with each of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals for 2030!
