Enjoy authentic Spanish cuisine at Barcino, where flavourful classics have been served to delight the palate for 20 years
Barcino has long been a destination to enjoy authentic Spanish fare. With chefs that make use of traditional cooking techniques, each guest is granted a genuine experience to savour as they bring together Spain’s rich culinary history and a touch of Philippine flavour.
Barcino’s vast menu also features the finest ingredients sourced directly from Spain, honouring long-held cooking traditions preserved over time. Dishes are curated to highlight the best of what each region has to offer. From Valencia, paella is served right in its
paellera and comes in 13 variants, such as the paella negra, or the paella cerdo
en adobo and paella cerdo sisig, both of which suit the local palate. The paella is a guaranteed fiesta on a platter.
No meal would be complete without a refreshing glass of sangria. This classic concoction—a mix of wine, oranges, lemons, sugar and spices—traces its roots from Leon. At Barcino, sangria takes on many forms. There’s Tinto, the red sangria common in the south of Spain, and the Blanco, the white sangria favoured in Catalan regions like Barcelona. There’s also their very own concoctions: Tropical, white sangria mixed with fruits like pineapple and mango; and Paradise, the classic red enriched with lychee, green apple and a splash of spritz.
Barcino is also home to a vast collection of wines. The brand has partnered with multi-awarded wineries from Beronia, Valiformosa and Matarromera, among others. This carefully curated selection not only pairs well with Spanish dishes, but also celebrates the wine culture the country is known for.
For over two decades, Barcino has spread delight through its cuisine across Metro Manila and has recently brought the experience to Cebu.
To celebrate its 20th anniversary, the brand brings in 5-Michelin star and renowned Spanish chef Paco Perez into its fold this 18th to the 20th of October. Guests will get a chance to partake in a tasting menu dinner curated by Perez himself, offering an unforgettable fine dining experience.
Through a culinary journey, this well-loved restaurant effectively transports one to the Spanish regions where its dishes hail from. By infusing its authentic touch through its innovations, Barcino gives its guests plenty of reasons to keep coming back. Truly, the perfect destination for authentic Spanish cuisine and so much more.
