10 Hours roasted Lamb - Brown 33, by Mushari



10 hours roasted lamb with thyme, honey and lemon



A foodie pal of mine, who is in Barcelona now; had a "10 hours roasted lamb with thyme, honey and lemon", at the Brown 33 restaurant on Passeig de Gràcia in Barcelona and wanted to share this with me. it took him time to explain the cooking process and how tender it was! but it is all simply explained in the dish's title!
basically, It is lamb chunks wrapped with with lamb flank and roasted from the morning to be served at night with a side of potatoes that are boiled with the lamb stock then sautéed. 
I can only imagine how tasty and tender that was!

3awafii msharii , Thanx for sharing :)

Comerç 24 - tasting menu

Filo, Parma, lime and basil

Monkfish with black sesame and black garlic

Bangkok asparagus soup

Pizza 24


Oyster with white Truffle


Kinder egg
as the name might suggest, one could easily mistake this savory dish for a sweet one! :) its a remarkable mix of creamy substance with what i think is mushroom and other ingredients that i can't currently recall. it is simply wonderful and well worth its 10Euros as it was not part of the tasting menu! 

Nougat with tuille cigar,
Sablée with pineapple and meringue

SARDINES with orange and fresh wasabi

Cold infusion soup


Assorted Wild Mushrooms with white truffle



CHIAVARI red mullet
the white desk in the middle is a jellied fish stock made from the bones of the red mullet




Sheep milk Yoghurt with apple and raspberry ice creme


Bread, Olive oil, Chocolate and salt


Natural "Nestea" white peach juice, lemon zest, and green tea foam




Comerç 24 is a one Michelin star modern Catalan cuisine with a considerable emphasis on  molecular gastronomy, by Chef Carles Abellán, a former 15 years veteran of the famed El Bulli (voted the Worlds best restaurant).
The tasting menu is the main attraction of this place! its not cheap but not expensive too, considering the Michelin star it holds. depending on the tasting menu chosen the meal could take anywhere between 3-4 hours! 
The menu in Comerç 24 is seasonal, and thus ensuring freshness! This was definitely an interesting experience!

Alkimia's set menu is well worth its Michelin star, call days ahead to ask for any special dietary needs. Good service, the only down side is the 3-4 hours it takes to complete the menu!
