Alkimia has a somewhat surprising location inside the Moritz beer factory, which has been redesigned as a gourmet complex. Once you’ve rung the bell to get in, you’ll find two different spaces (the bistro-style Alkostat and the Alkimia restaurant itself, in front of the kitchen), both featuring attractive designer details, avant-garde references to the marine world, alongside reclaimed classical furnishings that recall the interiors of Barcelona’s former aristocratic mansions (for which the architectural company External Reference was awarded top place for best design at the prestigious 2017 SBID Awards). In the gastronomic dining room, chef Jordi Vilà conjures up fresh, contemporary cuisine which is deeply rooted in Catalan tradition and has a strong focus on fish. He offers just a single tasting menu (Alkimia), although during the hunting season guests can pre-order a second game-inspired menu (Salvaje).
