Dinner at Martín Berasategui

on 02 Jan 2024

While I have visited @lasartebcn in Barcelona a few times, last year was my first time trying the 3* eponymous restaurant of @martinberasategui in San Sebastián. With a total of 12 Michelin Stars at present, Martin is regarded as one of the best chefs in the world.

Martin Berasategui 1st visit — 3 Michelin stars (the chef holds 12 stars in total). Beautifully presented dishes, great technique and execution. Though the meal was more French than Spanish, somewhat lacking the sense of place. •

Dinner at Spain – Martin Berasategui 

on 19 Oct 2019

Second visit to MB. In more then 40 visits there I have never, ever not eaten well there. How Martin Berasategui maintains that level of cooking and creativity over such a long time is a riddle to me.
I will go there as long as somebody can drag me up the massive staircase to his restaurant.

38th Visit:

MB underwent a complete renovation during their winter closure. The dining room includes now the space which used to be the terrace, however they did not increase the number of seats, only the spacing increased. They uses much more wood to create a very warm atmosphere. A great change.

The food, as always is impeccable and the menu includes some of MB's classics as well as 7 new courses developed for the 2019 menu. One of them merits a special mentioning as it is fantastic and will... More

MB underwent a complete renovation during their winter closure. The dining room includes now the space which used to be the terrace, however they did not increase the number of seats, only the spacing increased. They uses much more wood to create a very warm atmosphere. A great change.

The food, as always is impeccable and the menu includes some of MB's classics as well as 7 new courses developed for the 2019 menu. One of them merits a special mentioning as it is fantastic and will be come an instant classic:
Grilled hake steak with squid tartar and toasted walnut herb with hint of saffron.
The hake was wrapped with a very thin lawyer of pork belly almost like a skin around the fish. This kept moisture inside the parcel and created an incredible texture. Paired with the slightly smoky flavour it will be most certainly one of the dishes of the year.

MB keeps on surprising me. Year after year he churns out top notch menus, everything executed with total perfection and quite often creates greatness. Like this year!
