Secret restaurant in a bookstore in Barcelona
But what makes Milhojas truly special is its secret restaurant.
Cocíname, the bookstore’s restaurant, holds clandestine dinners every month with renowned chefs.
Diners have the opportunity to sample unique dishes prepared by some of the world’s best chefs while enjoying the cozy and welcoming atmosphere of the bookstore.
The clandestine dinners, called “Montagud’s Magic Nights”, are exclusive events with a very limited capacity.
In order to attend, reservations must be made in advance through the bookstore’s website.
Each dinner has a different chef who prepares a multi-course menu for diners.
The next event is scheduled for April 17 and will feature Javi Estévez, chef of La Tasquería de Madrid.
Estévez will prepare a 17-course menu focused on casquería, his hallmark. Diners will have the opportunity to enjoy a unique dinner while conversing with the chef and learning more about his approach to gastronomy.
Milhojas is a gastronomic experience not to be missed for food and literature lovers in Barcelona.
Be sure to reserve your place at the next Milhojas clandestine dinner for an unforgettable evening of literature and gastronomy.
