#RAMON FREIXA SHORT MENU REVIEW FREE#

One of the most important things by creating a two-star menu is that you guests not get overeaten so the final of this was a candy-bar which met all the last wishes you might have. The main-course a perfectly seasoned and cooked duckling with corn and whisky was one of the highlights of a unique evening. One of the details that my dad noticed was that some of courses where directly prepared and presented at the table in front of us, so the consommé double combined with wild mushrooms and 60 minutes egg was one of the dishes I still remember weeks after I went there. At this time my family and me decided to enjoy the wine paring, one of the best food and wine pairings I’ve ever had in my life. Starting with enormous choice of different Spanish tapas like croquettes or some mussels presented on a marbled bear which is a sight here Madrid. Like at Ramón Freixa, we ordered the grand tasting menu which included ten courses as well. My dad - a great chef himself - was just taking notes in order to adapt some of the techniques in our own hotel. This dinner was very emotional and inspiring as well because I shared the table with my parents. Chef José Carlos Fuentes, the creator of the menus who worked with some of the most iconic chefs especially in Spain and in Tokyo, is managing to get all his experience in his own food at El Club Allard. Not a surprise that this stunning place is affiliated to Relais&Chateaux. According to the webpage it is one of the most prestigious gourmet temples in the Spanish capital. Located in the very center of Madrid at Plaza Espagna - not easy to find if you don’t know it - nestled in an impressive old building called Casa Gallardo, “El Club Allard” opened its doors in 2003 to the general public. Ramón FreixaĬalle de Claudio Coello, 67, 28001 Madrid Plan some time, we left the place at 6.30 pm. Honestly it was worth every single cent which we spend there. The menu contained everything what you expect in such an extraordinary establishment, staring from foie gras, different verities of tomato, pulled Iberian pork with a very special Mexican impact or even the bread which is house-made tasting almost like directly imported of a French bakery. The sommelier kindly recommended us a few nice bottles of wine which were perfectly fitting to the different starters and amuse bouches. Lucky him that he is one of the selective ones to eat here twice in such a short time. My three friends and me decided to order the “big” menu including ten plates, a really nice detail of this restaurant was that the chef Ramón Freixa itself took our order and he even recognised a friend of mine in order to change the menu that he is not going to eat the same within two weeks. The Catalan chef and his team are serving the same menu for lunch as for the dinner (Same price though), so it really doesn’t matter when you decide to get the experience of having a two starred meal. In the chronological order I am going to start with the review of Ramon Freixa nestled in Salamanca the fancy district of Madrid at the Hotel Unico. In fall 2018, I had the pleasure to visit two of the 2 star awarded restaurants. Then seek out one of Madrid’s parks – Campo del Moro and El Retiro are nearby.Madrid has got 15 restaurants with one Michelin Star, 5 with two Stars and 1 with three stars.

You can get a sense of the city’s history at Puerta de Alcalá, Plaza Mayor and the Royal Palace. A short walk away you’ll find inspiring museums such as Prado, Thyssen and Reina Sofía. Outside the hotel door is Gran Vía, the place to discover boutiques, tapas bars and theatres. And The Principal Madrid puts you at the heart of it all. Night and day, Madrid is brimming with things to do. From this glass-fronted bar and urban garden you can sip gin, listen to music and watch the sun set beyond the rooftops of Madrid. Discover creative haute cuisine and panoramic views at Ático – one of the city’s must-visit restaurants. The Wellness Suite is made for 21st-century city breaks, with spa treatments to unwind post-sightseeing. The look and feel is sophisticated townhouse meets urban retreat. While the sights and sounds of the city buzz outside, inside The Principal you’ll discover instant calm.

There’s also a lounge that offers free drinks to guests and a bar with 24-hour service. Where a trend-setting restaurant, skyline-skimming bar and soothing rooms await. The hotel's restaurant, Ramon Freixa Madrid, is one of its highlights the Michelin-starred eatery has been touted as the best restaurant in Madrid and, in the warmer months, has an outdoor terrace with views over the private garden. Beyond the magnificent façade is a boutique hotel that oozes cosmopolitan style. On the edge of fashionable Gran Vía in Madrid stands The Principal.
