As time goes by, some places become part of a town or city’s landscape. This is true for El Sal\u00ed in Calella de Palafrugell<\/strong>. Full of charm and history, this place has known how to adapt to changing times. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It was originally an establishment dedicated to salting fish<\/strong>, one of the oldest methods of preserving this type of food. The moment you step inside, you get the sense of how busy this place used to be.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You can still see the receptacles used to salt the fish and venturing a little further you come to a garden, which is where the cans and fishing gear were once stored<\/strong>. Some of them are still there.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Captura<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

El Sal\u00ed has gone through many incarnations<\/strong>. During the 1950s, it was a <\/span>boite<\/span><\/i> or nightclub. Thirty years later, the current restaurant owners turned it into a small shopping center. The stalls mainly sold handicrafts and linen clothes. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ten years later, in the 1990s, the space became a restaurant, which served excellent food made from market-fresh ingredients. The scorpion fish <\/strong><\/span>suquet<\/i><\/strong> and the oven-baked lamb<\/strong> were the star dishes. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In 2006, the restaurant did a 360-degree turn. The new generation of owners decided to focus on fusion cuisine: Mediterranean meets Asian<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The current d\u00e9cor reflects the restaurant’s two culinary inspirations. The interior garden is the restaurant’s center<\/strong>. It leads to several different spaces, each one decorated with exquisite taste. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In addition to the menu, which features a Catalan classic like the noodle dish <\/span>fideu\u00e1<\/span><\/i> alongside Vietnamese <\/span>nems<\/span><\/i>, the restaurant boasts an equally excellent wine list<\/strong>. \u00a0It includes Jean Leon 3055 Chardonnay. An excellent choice.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
