Incredible dinner experience at EL CELLER DE CAN ROCA - 22 courses

Subtitles are available for English and Spanish.
On December 1st 2018 we reserved a table at El Celler de Can Roca, one of the best restaurants in the world. 11 months of waiting passed by before we could enjoy a spectacular 3 hour dinner experience with 22 courses in Girona.
In 2009 El Celler the Can Roca received the third Michelin star and was named the world's best restaurant 2013 and 2015.
El Celler de Can Roca was opened in 1986 by Joan and Josep Roca in Girona, Catalonia, Spain. They where joined by their brother Jordi in 1997. Together they created one of the world's finest dining experiences with local Catalan cuisine based on the food they grew up with in their parent's restaurant, Can Roca. Just 200 meters away from their son's restaurant, the Roca parents still run a typical Catalan bar with a daily lunch menu.
We visited both restaurants during our Girona trip and had a wonderful time.

Have you been at El Celler de Can Roca? What was it like? Or do you have questions about reserving a table there?

[@mohammadh69]

Unfortunately ☹️ No

[@agorilla]

Sadly, due to Corona, it could be more difficult to reserve once El Celler reopens. They're thinking about reducing tables to achieve more space between clients but when we ate there in November 2019 there was already a comfortable distance between the tables. Currently the restaurant is closed until June and they will only reopen if traveling across Europe is permitted again, according to this Spanish newspaper article: www.lainformacion.com/asuntos-sociales/coronavirus-celler-can-roca-podria-reabrir-puertas-junio-solo-puede-viajar/6567688/

@@agorilla Me and my wife are going there in 2 weeks. We had to cancel our reservation last year due to covid related reasons so we are extremely excited for our lunch in october!

[@agorilla]

​@@quintvandenheuvel895 Wish you both an amazing experience. For us it was unbelievable. Keep an eye open when you enter as Joan Roca typically stands at the kitchen's door greeting the guests. Such a nice, humble person. Enjoy your stay in Girona. And if you can, try some xuixos, the pastry the city and Catalunya is most famous for. The best ones are from Xuixos Castelló (goo.gl/maps/zJjaUwLibKck9JRG6)

Yo fui y es un festival , de comer estas miniaturas excelente

[@markyochoa]

Did Jordi get his voice back? Or are those old recordings?

[@agorilla]

Hey Marky, unfortunately no. His voice still suffers from this conditions.

[@flyingbullet53]

they choose some ingredients cut in abstract shape make a bright color sauce pour it on topping . call it dish 😆

[@agorilla]

Yeah 😄 But the taste is incredible as well. Everythibg we tried was delicious.

[@devastator01ful]

Looks more like a cafe than a fine dining restaurant

[@agorilla]

If you expectation of fine dining is a golden interior, then maybe. They‘ve created a very chilled space out of glass, stone and wood. We liked it.

[@aillendeception3972]

Mejor vengan a México aquí con 280 te comes un kilo de carnitas bien sabroso y por 20 más una coca bien fría ,esa madre no llena jaja

[@dancinginthedark666]

Muy interesante lo de poner un chiste de comida en un plato de 30 cms de diámetro, para que luego te crujan en el precio. ¡¡VIVA LA COCINA TRADICIONAL!!

[@sergegaash]

Digo yo que pueden convivir las dos cosas. Si no te interesa, con no ir ya está.

[@manuel9964]

Jajaja que mrd será, pero cada quien con su plata

[@rusohernandez2869]

Con un plato de lentejas normal hacen para 4 con esta cocina de aperitivos....que triste

[@Davidman3976]

Con un avión puedes viajar a Australia y con un coche no. Mezclar churras con merinas.

[@rusohernandez2869]

@@Davidman3976 ¿?

[@marcoreyes4479]

Ja creeme que no, primero sirven aperitivos 10 en total, luego presentan 5 platos principales luego 5 postres más vino y al final un stand de dulces. No puedes comparar un viaje estándar con un ejecutivo, verás que la semantica es diversa y por eso el celler está donde se lo merece Alguien que no sabe de cocina no lo comprende, pero lo más importante es no hacer lo convencional, conocer más allá de tu comida y eso seguramente lo tiene bien seguro cada hermano porque la pareja de uno de ellos es de Jalisco, y quiera o no la cultura se hace parte de ellos

[@supremeenlightenedtramp1080]

it all stupid props .

[@johnnyroca2269]

tan poquito comida en un plato?y tan caro???? tendría que comer 25 platos para llenarme mi estomago, fueraaaa

[@maqrol100]

pues son 22 platos mas los 6 petit fours...a 50 gr por plato te estas crujiendo 1kg de comida....no sólo estás pagando el valor de la comida en si; estas disfrutando de cubertería de primer nivel, vajillas exclusivas, cristalería de colección, mantelería, trato único....sigo? ...al final es una opción más....si quieres (y puedes) la coges y sino tienes muchas otras...salud!
