In addition to a glass-like crust and a rich texture, the crema catalana had a unique spice flavour that I don't think any of us was able to identify. Amazing stuff.

His Crema Catalana is one of the most requested as it follows the traditional recipe, which is very reminiscent of the grandmothers. Chubby and with a thin layer of sugar. Scrumptious!

The Gold Standard Catalan Crema. The texture is like velvet and the sugar crust is always perfectly even.

The custard had a subtle orange flavor, making it light and refreshing. Its surface is caramelized and hardened, giving it a crunchy texture.

Super creamy and not too sweet! Named the oldest restaurant in Barcelona, it is still one of the best for traditional cuisine.
