Background

About Fauna

The Story

Fauna operates as part of the Hotel Kimpton Vividora's culinary program, offering Mediterranean dining in a contemporary setting. The kitchen team crafts seasonal menus that honor Catalan traditions while embracing modern techniques and presentation. As a newer establishment, Fauna is establishing itself as a noteworthy destination for Mediterranean cuisine in Barcelona.

The Cuisine

Mediterranean cuisine with deep Catalan roots forms the foundation of Fauna's culinary identity. The kitchen blends traditional regional flavors with contemporary techniques, creating dishes that respect heritage while embracing modern sensibilities. Fresh, seasonal ingredients are treated with careful attention, resulting in refined presentations that showcase the richness of Mediterranean gastronomy.

The Team

Executive chef Jordi Delfa leads Fauna's kitchen, cooking the Catalan recipes he grew up with and selecting the best seasonal produce available. His guiding principle, "when you welcome friends home, you give them the best you have", shapes a menu built on family-style dishes like a roast-meat cannelloni with Soubise and Fogassa cheese, house croquettes and rices cooked to order for the table.
