In Chef Ruscalleda’s own words: “Moments stands for common sense, tradition, authenticity and a return to our roots".
Awarded with a Michelin star, our gourmet restaurant is blazing a trail in traditional Catalan cuisine. Directed by Carme Ruscalleda, a female chef who has earned five Michelin stars for her restaurants in Spain and Tokyo, and her son Raül Balam, Moments is one of the finest dining experiences in Barcelona.
Key to Ruscalleda’s success is the inspiration she finds in fresh produce; her culinary team search daily for the season’s finest. The Moment’s menu will feature traditional dishes from the Catalan cookbook such as arroz caldoso (rice dish with broth), fricandó (veal stew) and suquet (fish stew).
The Moment’s dining room is an ultimately chic space; gold and amber touches glint in the bright daylight and shimmer in the evening. Private dining behind a sheer curtain presents an intimate view over the kitchen.
Enjoy the tasting menu experience or our Executive Club Lunch from Tuesday to Friday, an ideal option for regular guests and business lunches, with a high-value menu that changes weekly.
The 5-star Michelin chef Carme Ruscalleda and Dr. Manuel Sanchez, head of the Anti-aging Unit Clinic Planas, have combined their experience and knowledge to create a menu exclusively for Moments, headed by Chef Raül Balam. The gourmet restaurant at Mandarin Oriental, Barcelona is the only establishment in the city that offers anti-aging gastronomy.
