El Celler de Can Roca
Girona, Spain
The read// why locals go
El Celler de Can Roca is the Roca brothers' Catalan restaurant in Girona, one of the most decorated kitchens in Spain and still a family business. Joan cooks, Josep runs the cellar and Jordi makes the desserts, and the restaurant now anchors a wider Roca operation spread across the city. The cooking is Catalan at its root — the region's produce, its sauces, its coastline and its interior — extended by three decades of experiment and served as tasting menus, with a vegetarian version available. The wine list is the other half of the argument, and the reason the sommelier brother is treated as an equal partner. Book months ahead; this is a destination table, not a walk-in.
