There are gastronomic experiences you plan months in advance. And then there are those fleeting, wild and exclusive opportunities that appear almost without warning and disappear in the blink of an eye.
This is one of them. And it is happening the day after tomorrow.
On 20 May, the smoke, the embers and the stripped-back haute cuisine that have taken Smoked Room to the top — earning it 2 Michelin stars in record time — are packing their bags. We are leaving our home to take over one of Valencia’s most vibrant and rule-free spaces: Alegal.
For one night only. For just 50 people.
What Happens When Two Universes Collide?
Smoked Room is technique, primitivism and the most radical expression of Dani García’s cuisine. Alegal is design, culture, rebellion and local produce with a Mediterranean soul.
What will happen this Wednesday is not a traditional four-hands dinner. It is a fusion in which the Fire Omakase — that narrative where fire controls everything — enters into dialogue with Alegal’s seasonality and transgressive spirit.
There are no predefined rules. Only a sensory progression designed down to the smallest detail by Massimiliano Delle Vedove, chef of Smoked Room, taking you from absolute subtlety to the deepest intensity.
A Menu Where Smoke Sets the Rules and Spain’s Best Sommelier Works His Magic
If you know the Smoked Room universe, you know we do not do things halfway.
The journey will begin by gently caressing the palate with the precise freshness of Motril prawns with brown butter and yuzu kosho, before raising the temperature step by step.
You will come face to face with iconic creations of surgical precision:
- Smoked eel nitro tomato with roasted pepper gel and Málaga-style ajo blanco.
- No sakemushi langoustine with grilled mayonnaise.
- The commanding force of grilled Kagoshima A5 Wagyu, accompanied by 34-year-aged soy sauce and fresh wasabi.
Even the sweet finale refuses to leave the fire behind, with chocolate, miso and smoked notes that extend the experience until the very last second.
But a menu of this calibre would be incomplete without a conductor to match. That is why the pairing will be led by Luis Baselga, named Spain’s Best Sommelier by the MICHELIN Guide 2026. Luis has designed a selection of wines created exclusively to amplify the aromatic complexity of each stage of smoke.
