Chef’s recommendations include “Secreto” roasted Iberian pork ribs with spicy pineapple and cinnamon, classic suckling pig terrine, and traditional paella, Barcelona style. The classic Spanish dishes and those featuring the delicacy of Iberian pork available at Barcelona are the embodiment of traditional Spanish cuisine. The menu is complemented by a list of Spanish wines, beers and refreshing cocktails, all personally hand-picked by Chef Hector.
