Background
About Follia
The Story
Follia is a Michelin-selected contemporary restaurant set in a stone masia in Sant Joan Despí, awarded a perfect 5/5 by Barcelona. The property features a glass-fronted dining room with views of the surrounding vineyards, which produce the house wine, and a small garden growing tomatoes, lettuce, fruit trees, and aromatic plants. The kitchen's focus on seasonal, locally grown ingredients is visible at every level of the operation, from garden to glass.
The Cuisine
The kitchen at Follia centres on two seasonal tasting menus, Rauxa and Follia, each built around the produce of the moment. The Michelin Guide highlights the Corazón de bosque (heart of the forest) preparation with beef and cucumber vinaigrette, accompanied by three types of in-house bread, as a signature dish. The restaurant also operates Follia de Pot, a more casual tapas bar concept offering cheese boards, charcuterie, anchovies, fried potatoes, and croquettes.
The Team
The kitchen at Follia is led by chef Jó Baixas, who shapes the restaurant's creative direction through the Rauxa and Follia seasonal menus. Baixas has built a service style that balances creative ambition with attentive, unhurried hospitality across both lunch and dinner seatings.

A Follia cuinem amb el que toca i quan toca. Producte de temporada, ritme de cuina viu i una manera de fer que combina ofici, criteri i una mica de rauxa. Busquem algú que entengui això: que li agradi cuinar, treballar en equip i formar part del dia a dia d'una cuina que es mou, canvia i no s'està
Amb el bon temps, la masia agafa un altre ritme. Jardí, llum i espais que conviden a celebrar: casaments, trobades i moments que val la pena fer bé. Aquí tot està pensat perquè passin coses que després es recorden. Si tens alguna idea al cap, al dossier de la bio hi trobaràs tota la informació.
S'acosta la primavera. El sol s'allarga, escalfa una mica més… i al jardí ja es nota.�Les aromàtiques s'espavilen, creixen contentes i tornen a omplir l'aire de vida.
A la planta baixa de la masia hi ha el Pot del Follia, just on comença el celler. És la nostra cara més desenfadada: tapes, plats per compartir, coses per anar provant i aquell punt de llibertat que convida a deixar-se portar. Un espai més viu, més directe, pensat per gaudir sense massa normes. Id
El que surt de l'hort… acaba al plat. Sense massa misteri. Plantem, esperem, collim… i cap a cuina. A vegades amb un pla clar, a vegades improvisant una mica —que també ens agrada.
La nostra cuina parteix d'una idea senzilla: cuinar amb el que tenim a prop i amb el que toca en cada moment. Treballar el producte amb respecte, deixar espai perquè parli i, de tant en tant, jugar una mica amb ell. Entre el seny i la rauxa, és on apareix la Follia.
