Where is the best restaurant in the world? Recently, the "5 Best Restaurants in the World" sponsored by the British "Restaurant" magazine gave the answer: Elbury Hotel in Spain dropped the last champion British "Fat Duck" restaurant from the throne and won the first place, which is the second time that the hotel has won the championship. So, what's good about this restaurant?

book 3 months in advance

El Bli Hotel is located near rosas in northern Spain, about two hours' drive from Barcelona. There are obvious road signs on the road. Through the green trees beside the hotel, you can see the sparkling bay. Looking through a big window, you can clearly see the hotel kitchen. The kitchen seems to be made of huge steel, stone and wood, which shines with charming brilliance.

Elbury Hotel is only open for six months every year from April to September, and only serves dinner, and only receives 5 guests every night. To this end, if you want to taste the cooking skills of chef Ferran Adrià, diners need to make an appointment two or three months in advance to reserve a table. Statistics show that in 23, 4, people from all over the world requested to order food, but only 8, people were satisfied throughout the year.

In winter, the Elbury Hotel closes its doors to thank guests, and the work turns to experiments. The hotel has a laboratory equipped with high technology in Barcelona, where there is a special liquid measuring instrument and vacuum concentrator, which specializes in studying recipes and the growth structure characteristics of food for the hotel, and then submits the topics of the new menu to the hotel for Phelan's review. Usually every 5 experiments, 25 to 5 dishes can be invented and determined.

it takes 4 hours to eat

when the guests arrive, the waiter in the hotel will pour each guest a cocktail of emerald color, which is said to be made of rum, sugar, lemon and mint. This cocktail will have a "shocking" stimulus to the taste, which is mint rather than alcohol.

After drinking a glass of wine, you will feel much more awake, and then you can taste the delicious food in the hotel one after another. Generally, there will be more than 2 courses, and the meal time can be as long as 4 hours. It's a bit cliche to say "dining". Eating here is more like being baptized by catering culture. Waiters know everything about each dish, and they will introduce the raw materials and how to eat each dish in detail. Many things that people often eat are cooked by the chef's hands here, and the taste becomes another way. For example, popcorn, put on the tongue, will melt by itself, making people memorable.

The boss is a legend

Phelan, the operator of Elbury Hotel, has become a legend in the world catering industry. According to Spanish media reports, Phelan fell in love with the job of a chef when he was 16 years old. He gave up his studies and went to work in a restaurant. In 1983, he entered the well-known Elbury Hotel to look for a job. The owner of the hotel liked him very much. Only one year later, Phelan became the head chef of the Elbury Hotel. Phelan became a shareholder two years later, and then gradually became the owner of exclusive shares.

Phelan has developed many unique dishes. For example, jelly is a familiar dessert, but Phelan's jelly is different: it is made of fish, chicken and vegetables. In addition, a packet of fresh meat juice in "fried meatballs" is also an exclusive secret recipe.

Only 2, Euros for take-out

Since Phelan took over, Elbury Hotel has gradually become a leading role in the international catering arena, and it is common for Phelan to win various trophies and prizes. What makes Phelan most proud is that in the 21 new york World Catering Evaluation Competition, Elbury Hotel beat many famous French and British hotels to win the championship, and the Spanish hotel was on the podium in new york for the first time.

The hotel area limits the number of guests, and Elbury Hotel can also provide take-away service for luxury houses. However, the standard for take-out is more than 2, euros, so only the rich can enjoy it.

Although Elbury Hotel introduces 2 new dishes every year, many diners express their dissatisfaction, because the dishes they liked last year may be gone this year.
