Echegaray opened in 2018 on Carrer de Marià Aguiló in El Poblenou as a small neighbourhood restaurant serving market-driven Mediterranean cooking.

Background

About Echegaray

The Story

Echegaray opened in 2018 on Carrer de Marià Aguiló in El Poblenou, serving market-driven Mediterranean cooking from a small corner site. The menu is organised by supplier, cod from Bacallaneria Perelló 1898, fish from Peixos Montía, meats from Carnisseria Mari and Carnisseria Trinxant, so each dish traces back to a named source.

The Cuisine

Catalan and Mediterranean plates built around specific Barcelona suppliers: Icelandic salt cod esqueixada, grilled queen scallops, Pyrenean entrecôte, Iberian secreto with teriyaki, and pork ear with Santa Pau beans.

The Team

The restaurant is run as a small neighbourhood operation; the website presents the team collectively rather than naming an individual chef.
