Tarifa, in the south of Cádiz province. A town of light and charm that seduces all who visit. The most idyllic beaches in Andalusia, with fine sand, crystal-clear water and a reputation as the best in Spain. Perfect for spending a day in the sun or enjoying water sports with other devotees – surfing, kitesurfing, windsurfing, paddle boarding, etc.

Tarifa is a town where it’s easy to make all kinds of plans to ensure you make the most of its culture, food and entertainment options. Your day might start with a good Mediterranean breakfast of toast, coffee and orange juice, so you’ll be all set for a wander round the town, which should always include a visit to the Guzmán El Bueno castle, one of the best preserved fortresses in Andalusia. It was built in 960 by the caliph, Abd-ar-Rahman III, though it bears the name of the Christian governor, Guzmán El Bueno, who defended the city during the Christian invasion of 1294.

You’ll then be free to take stroll around the town’s shops and bars, and enjoy an aperitif and a wonderful bite of net-caught tuna from Barbate, another charming town that’s not far from Tarifa.

If you’re a water sports lover, there are plenty of surf schools that can provide whatever gear you need, or get you started with individual lessons in surfing or kitesurfing, among others.

All of this comes before experiencing the most magical sunset on the dunes at Valdevaqueros. They’re the kind of sunsets you remember for the rest of the year and think of every chilly winter’s evening as you listen to some chill-out. Don’t forget to grab a selfie with the sunset in the background – when the winter cold starts to bite, you’ll thank us for this bit of influencer advice.

The day draws to a close with good times among family and friends – a culinary evening that will continue to take you on your travels, this time around the world, with the tastes and flavours of cities and cultures that the chef, Dani García, has discovered in the different parts of the world he’s been to. BiBo Beach House, better known as BiBo Tarifa, will take you to each and every one of them through its carefully curated menu, adapted to the Tarifa style, with exclusive dishes to match its particular Cádiz brasserie style, together with some truly fabulous cocktails.

Chef Dani García, a 3-star Michelin chef from Spain, and one of the highly acclaimed Andalusian chefs in the world, will be launching a special Paella Fashion Weekend menu from 5 to 7 February at his recently opened at The St. Regis Hotel.

Chef Dani Garcia, along with his award-winning executive chefs will be joining BiBo Doha guests firsthand to present this unique experience. Spending many weekends making Paellas for his family in Marbella, Garcia is known to have accumulated his own secrets of how to make this perfect Spanish dish.

This once off Paella menu will offer a choice of paella, such as the Paella de Pollo Coquelette served with Cornfed baby chicken Paella, Paella de Chuleta de Wagyu, and Paella de Bogavante served with Lobster saffron.

The three-course set menu includes signature shared starters such as the traditional salad dish in Russian cuisine, ensaladilla rusa, and the potato omelet Tortilla de patata Brava, a traditional dish from Spain, as well as BiBo’s signature desserts such as the famous Cheesecake, and the Fruta Fresca, served with fresh fruit, frozen tropical meringue, nitro popcorn and hibiscus granita.

“I am very excited to introduce our customers to my version of this historic Spanish dish that was famous in the rural areas of Valencia between the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. My versions are ones that I am confident will appeal to the refined taste of the people of Qatar. I look forward to welcoming everyone during the weekend to try this exclusive offering,” said Dani Garcia, founder of Bibo.

Paella is a rice dish made from autochthonous short-grain rice called Bomba o Calasparra. It is prepared with a rich stock in a flat pan called Paella, and it is considered to be one of the most iconic dishes in Spanish cuisine.

With rice and saffron being just some of the ingredients introduced by the Moors, Paella has strong influences from the old Moorish kingdom of Al-Ándalus. It is a representation of Spanish kitchen, however, with time it has found its way to world cuisine becoming more international, with variants of meat, seafood, fish, and vegetables.

Chef Dani explores different types of Paellas from thin style Alicantino Paellas – a thin layer of rice with a choice of topping, to creamy meloso rice and Paellas made on open flames with vine leaves, providing his fans with many options to experience this unique Spanish signature dish. In BiBo, guests will taste Paella that uses Bomba rice, harvested from three different villages- Sollana, Silla and Sueca- and known to increase three times in size when cooked, locking in flavours and aromas.

Chef Dani Garcia is famous for combining dishes that his gastronomic memory has been accumulating during his travels inside and outside of Spain. BiBo is a culinary travel guide created to enjoy a global cuisine fused with Garcia’s roots and origins.
