Enjoy Jean-Luc Figueras restaurant
All critics place Jean-Luc Figueras' eponymous restaurant right at the top of Barcelona's best restaurants, it therefore should be highly placed on a list of the world's best. Jean-Luc Figueras is an exquisite restaurant, set in the 1850's townhouse that was once the atelier of Balenciaga and decorated in restrained traditional style. It is located in the district of Gracia, one of the most elegant in the city, and where your can find a Barcelona apartment just next to the famous Passeig de Gracia. Service is impeccable. This is special occasion dining, with multiple amuse-bouches, each with its own change of cutlery. The cuisine is a superb example of what Barcelona calls Author Cuisine, with the chef's personality indelibly stamped on each dish. References are French and Catalan. The finest seasonal ingredients are employed. Menus change frequently, but some of Figueras's own creations include prawn and ginger-flecked pasta in mango and mustard sauce, and seabass with cod and blood sausage. A 20-course tasting menu is available. Desserts are lauded, and the cellar is a match for the food in every way
The setting is modern and refined, and the cookery is both traditional and innovative, as Figueras stamps every dish with his own personal touch. Highly dedicated to staying on top, Figueras is a seeker of the finest raw materials on the Barcelona market, and his menu is adjusted to take advantage of the best produce in any season. The emphasis is on fresh seafood, although his meat dishes are also sublime. Your tongue will fall in love with you if you're wise enough to select such nouvelle-inspired dishes as shrimp with a velvety smooth and golden pumpkin cream sauce or the pork with a zesty goat cheese enlivened with peach honey. The desserts are homemade and inevitably sumptuous, and there are seven varieties of freshly made bread.
