A hidden gem in Porrera
The Priorat is known for its natural beauty and spectacular vineyards, but one of its best kept treasures is La Cooperativa de Porrera. This establishment is not only a restaurant, but a refuge that evokes a feeling of belonging and warmth, as if each visitor is welcomed with open arms.
A story of love and passion for cooking
The Cooperative was born from the vision of Mia and Litus, who almost two decades ago decided to create a space where gastronomy becomes an emotional experience. With an atmosphere reminiscent of the inns of yesteryear, the flower-decorated tablecloths add a nostalgic touch that appeals to locals and outsiders alike.
The magic of intuitive cooking
Mia’s kitchen is a reflection of her love for gastronomy, where each dish is created instinctively. Without strictly following recipes, he knows exactly how to combine fresh ingredients to achieve dishes that surprise for their originality. The sea and mountain are a perfect example of this creativity, fusing flavors of the land and the sea.
A feast of local flavors
During her visit, Maite Escribà was able to enjoy a selection of dishes that reflect the essence of the Priorat. The beetroot gazpacho, made with zero kilometer ingredients, was the first taste, followed by a refreshing Barbastre pink tomato with ganyims. Each dish is a celebration of local flavors, presented with a touch of sophistication.
Tradition and innovation in every bite
Dishes like pickled quail and partridge bring a game kitchen air, while options like pig’s feet with black sausage and samfaina exemplify the richness of home cooking. For those looking for a sweet touch, orange and cocoa cakes complete an exceptional dining experience.
An essential destination for food lovers
The Porrera Cooperative has managed to capture the attention of visitors from various parts of the world, who often return home with unforgettable memories and stories to share. Its fame is constantly growing, reaffirming itself as one of the most valued places for those looking for an authentic gastronomic experience.
A promising future
With 19 years of history and a passion that never stops growing, La Cooperativa de Porrera is preparing for a bright future. The dedication and love of its founders for gastronomy and their land ensure that this space will continue to be a benchmark for generations to come.
