The dining experiences are transformed into much like a theater or sporting event where diners must buy tickets. Albert Adrià, brother to famous chef Ferran Adrià, tempts the visitors of the new 41°experience restaurant (41grados.es) with music and light shows, taking its inspiration from Mugaritz in San Sebastian and Grant Achatz’s Next restaurant in Chicago.
From 7 to 11.30pm, 16 customers at different times, split between three tables for four, and two tables for two, will experience a gastronomic and audovisual feast for the five senses. Experience is made up of 41 different dishes that combine around 50 snacks and fingerfood with cocktails and drinks. It’s a new concept in dining that’s accompanied by an image show projected and by a selection of music. And after 11.30pm the dining space becomes a classic cocktail bar that is also open to those Experience customers who would like to stay on.
The price of experience is 245€ per person, with a selection of drinks. Although the menu changes each day, here’s a taster of what your Experience could be.
