Hotel Empordà Review

Just a mile north of town, this hotel and elegant restaurant ($$-$$$) run by Jaume Subirós is hailed as the birthplace of modern Catalan cuisine and has become a beacon for gourmands seeking superb Catalan cooking. Try the terrina calenta de lluerna a l'oli de cacauet (hot pot of gurnard fish in peanut oil) or, if it's winter, llebre a la Royal (boned hare cooked in red wine). Guest rooms have parquet floors and sparkling bathrooms, and you can sit in the sun and enjoy a drink on the terrace. The hotel is 1½ km (1 mile) north of town.
