The dinner started off well. My group elected for the Itsasmendi tasting menu. Throughout the course, it was very difficult to hear the servers describe what we were eating which led to people in our group having to check the menu on our phones. Even then, it was still unclear at times what were were eating. The first few courses were presented well and at a good pace. The fake tomato macaron (maybe?) was delicious. The foie with mushroom juice (maybe?) was a strange texture experience. The chocolate in textures dessert was wonderful though.
At the beginning of the meal, the person who presented the menus stated the tasting menus would take approximately 2 hours. However, we were seated for almost 3 and a half hours! There were long periods of time between courses as the meal progressed. It almost felt as if they forgot about us? It also did not help that the restaurant became very hot towards the end of the meal. Two people in my group said that they felt like hostages because everything was taking so long and we were beginning to sweat.
Overall, this was an interesting experience, but everyone in the group said they would not come back. Especially since there are so many other Michelin options in Barcelona.
