KRESALA
Basque FISH GRILL AT PORT OLÍMPIC
In Basque, sea saltpeter, a term that in Basque culture represents the soul of the sea, fused with the fishermen who make their living from it.
Kresala is a corner of the Basque coast brought to Barcelona, where fire and sea come together in every dish. Inspired by fishing villages such as Orio, Getaria, Hondarribia and Bermeo, where the aroma of freshly grilled fish and the crackling of embers in the street celebrate these villages’ deep connection to the sea.
A gastronomic journey to the Basque fishing villages.
