After a year and a half revolutionising the gastronomic scene in the Catalan capital, Leña Barcelona, chef Dani García’s acclaimed fire-based dining concept, is expanding its horizons with the official opening of its terrace. Located within the exclusive Grand Hyatt Barcelona hotel, this new space has been designed as a sophisticated retreat to enjoy fire-cooked cuisine in the open air.

An oasis of sophistication in Les Corts

The Leña terrace is more than an extension; it is an oasis created for those seeking exclusivity and a vibrant atmosphere in the vicinity of Plaça de Pius XII. The space blends cutting-edge design with the warmth of the Leña universe, offering a balanced and relaxed ambiance that invites guests to linger into the evening. It stands as the perfect enclave for both local and international audiences wishing to enjoy Barcelona’s skyline from a setting of peace and absolute luxury.

The greatest hits, now al fresco

Since its opening, Leña has become “the place to be”, a meeting point for the city’s cosmopolitan scene, including figures from culture, fashion and sport, as well as food lovers who have made it their go-to restaurant in Barcelona. In this new outdoor chapter, guests will continue to enjoy the “hits” that have already become part of the city’s culinary imagination: from the iconic grilled Málaga avocado to the signature foie for spreading, alongside exclusive cuts of meat and the already legendary “burger that gave it all meaning.” A proposal that preserves Dani García’s technical excellence, now adapted to fully embrace the Mediterranean climate and the finest nights of the season.

Leña and Barcelona: a relationship that burns stronger than ever

Leña’s commitment to local culture remains as strong as ever. Coinciding with the opening of its terrace, the restaurant announces its participation, for the second time, in Tast a la Rambla.

The restaurant will once again delight gastronomy enthusiasts with its most passionate creation: the burger known as “the burger that gave it all meaning.” After causing a true sensation in the previous edition, this cult piece will return to the streets to reaffirm why Leña has earned a place in the heart (and palate) of Barcelona in just a year and a half of its journey.

Let’s be honest. If you are reading this, you already know that a real burger isn’t just a piece of meat slapped between two boring buns. May 28th is International Burger Day—the ultimate excuse to ditch the diet and pay tribute to this iconic bite. But in Dani García’s universe, we don’t just make burgers to get by. We make them so you can’t stop thinking about them.

And this year, we’re making your choice incredibly hard. Because Leña’s legendary Burger Bull is no longer playing solo. BiBo has just entered the game with a brand-new smash burger that is completely breaking the rules. The same DNA, the same devotion to our iconic Bull Sauce, but two entirely different experiences. Which side are you on?

Leña: The Burger Bull that started it all

If you are looking for classic perfection driven by live fire, Leña is your place. From day one, the mission was crystal clear: elevate the burger to the ranks of haute cuisine.

No gimmicks, just pure obsession with details:

• The Meat: An impeccable selection, minced to the exact point to guarantee a juicy bite that literally melts in your mouth.
• The Fire: The open flame of the grill isn’t just a cooking method; it’s an ingredient. That deep, smoky touch is non-negotiable.
• The Architecture: A brioche bun so soft on the inside and perfectly toasted on the outside, embracing melted Havarti cheese and, of course, Dani García’s unmistakable, iconic Bull Sauce.

Ordering the Burger Bull at Leña (whether you are in Marbella, Madrid, or Barcelona) isn’t just dining; it’s a ritual. It’s the aroma of the embers taking over the table right before that first bite forces you to close your eyes.

BiBo: The new “Smash” that came to break the rules

If Leña is the elegance of fire, BiBo is pure, unadulterated indulgence.

We knew the smash burger fever was here to stay, but we weren’t about to make just another regular burger. We took the technique of smashing the meat against a screaming hot griddle and gave it the ultimate BiBo twist.

The result? Absolute, addictive madness.

• Maillard reaction to the limit: Ultra-crispy, caramelized edges contrasting with an absurdly tender and juicy center.
• Drowned in Sauce: We don’t hold back here. BiBo’s new smash burger comes loaded with heavy amounts of Bull Sauce. Every single bite is a flavor explosion that will require more than one napkin. (And you won’t care at all).

It’s edgy, it’s fun, and it’s designed for you to get your hands dirty and just enjoy it like a kid.

This May 28th, choose your side

International Burger Day isn’t meant to be celebrated at home with a defrosted patty. It’s meant to be celebrated by worshipping high-quality meat.

Book your table at Leña or BiBo now and celebrate Burger Day the way it deserves.

There are products that define the calendar. With the arrival of spring, wild bluefin tuna caught using the traditional almadraba method once again takes centre stage in southern gastronomy. A product shaped by time, migration, and the precise point of fat content, whose season marks one of the most anticipated moments of the culinary year.

Within this context, Lobito de Mar, Dani García’s seafood concept, presents a special proposal together with Gadira, the leading name in the selection and treatment of this exceptional product. A collaboration born from respect for origin and raw ingredients, understanding each piece as part of a tradition deeply connected to the land, and recognising tuna as a product intrinsically linked to a territory and a way of doing things.

True to its way of looking to the sea, Lobito de Mar offers a journey that explores tuna through different cuts and techniques, combining raw preparations with others inspired by traditional recipes, always through a contemporary lens. The proposal brings together dishes served raw, where the texture and quality of the product are clearly appreciated, with other creations connected to the traditional cuisine of southern Spain.

The journey begins with bites such as black loin chirashi sushi with cured egg yolk and furikake, or o’toro sashimi with ponzu and yuzu kosho, and continues with dishes such as white loin tiradito with rocoto tiger’s milk, avocado and coriander. The menu gains depth with marinated tuna belly served with potato chips, and with the Cadiz-style fideuá of grilled parpatana tuna collar, a dish that connects directly with the flavours of the south.

Beyond technique, the true value of wild bluefin tuna from almadraba lies in its seasonality. Its catch takes place during a very specific moment of the year, when it reaches the perfect balance between fat and texture. In this process, Gadira’s work is essential: a model that covers everything from selection at origin to the artisanal ronqueo cutting process, ensuring full traceability and absolute control over every piece.

With this proposal, Lobito de Mar once again places the focus on what truly matters: the product, the moment, and the place. A way of understanding gastronomy where the sea sets the rhythm, and where every season has something to tell.

Available from April 27 to May 31 at Lobito Marbella and Madrid.

BiBo’s classics need no introduction. They are those dishes you recognize before tasting them, yet they always surprise.

There’s something special about sharing a table here. Laughter arrives before the food, but lingers long after.

Flavours that have become history

Talking about BiBo means talking about cravings fulfilled. That famous Russian salad that never fails, and brioches that disappear in seconds.

Then there are the Robuchon-style prawns or the signature guacamole made right in front of you. And that international touch that appears unexpectedly and takes you travelling without leaving Madrid.

The classics of BiBo Madrid have that perfect balance. They feel familiar, yet come with an unexpected twist that makes them unique. It’s all part of the Grupo Dani García universe, where eating is so much more than sitting at a table.

A menu designed for two (and worth repeating)

And then there’s the plan that changes everything. A set menu for two, available every day, no excuses.

Because some places meet expectations. And others create memories. The classics of BiBo Madrid stay with you. In the conversation, in your memory, and in that “we have to come back.”

And just like that, without even noticing, an ordinary dinner turns into a plan you’re already looking forward to repeating.

A night that begins without warning
There are plans you don’t overthink, they simply happen. Plans at the bar with friends with Amarre or La Barra de Cuatro in Tragabuches and Lobito de Mar start just like that, between spontaneous laughter. One message, any excuse, and you’re already ordering the first round.
The atmosphere lights up fast, like those nights that promise to stay with you.
At Tragabuches, everything feels southern, long conversations and tables that are never empty. At Lobito de Mar, the sea slips into every corner, fresh and unapologetic.

The bar as a meeting point
The bar has something special. There are no rules, just the desire to share. Plans at the bar with friends with Amarre or La Barra de Cuatro in Tragabuches and Lobito de Mar are best enjoyed standing up.

A bite here, another there, and conversation flows without pause. At Tragabuches, every dish feels like home, but with a twist that surprises. A menu created by content creators Nieves Felipo, Paula Casado, Marta and Esther Iglesias. A tribute to tuna with three tapas perfectly paired with three wines. All for €32 per person. Available only until May 17.

At Lobito de Mar, everything tastes like endless summer. Seafood, fried bites, and that salty flavor that calls for another drink. It’s easy to lose track of how much you eat when everything is tempting. Even more so with the Amarre menu, perfect for celebrating for just €24 per person.

Two different ways to stretch the moment, to toast for no reason. Because here, what matters isn’t what, but who.

Flavors that linger
The magic is in the details. In that waiter who recommends exactly what you need. In the background music that accompanies without taking over.

Plans at the bar with friends with Amarre and La Barra de Cuatro in Tragabuches and Lobito de Mar has that perfect balance. Not too formal, not too chaotic. Just enough to make you feel in the right place.

Grupo Dani García understands that moment well. That instant when food stops being just food and becomes a memory. Every bite adds up, every toast counts. And before you know it, the night has gone further than expected.

The plan you always crave
There are plans that never fail. The bar, friends, and something delicious to enjoy.

Plans at the bar with friends with Amarre and La Barra de Cuatro in Tragabuches and Lobito de Mar is exactly that. A plan without complications, but full of moments.

You leave with the feeling of having experienced more than just a dinner. As if you had celebrated something, even if you don’t know what.

And in the end, it’s always the same. The desire to come back.

On March 3rd, Smoked Room (two Michelin stars), the fire- and smoke-driven universe conceived by Dani García, changes scenery for one night, moving up to the seventh floor of the Four Seasons Hotel Madrid to meet Dani Brasserie, the chef’s cosmopolitan gastronomic lookout in the heart of the city.

Through a four-hands service limited to 24 guests, Dani García will be present and lead an exclusive journey designed to combine different registers: the intensity of fire and smoke with precise, light and sophisticated execution.

The menu unfolds over 12 courses, moving from the essential to the memorable: it begins with bites that awaken the palate, gains depth with nods to the Andalusian chef’s classics, progresses into a sequence where embers and smoke take center stage, and culminates in a sweet finale with strong personality. The experience reads as a dialogue between two universes that share the same roots — an obsession with product and technique — yet express themselves through distinct nuances: the luminous, cosmopolitan elegance of Dani Brasserie and the technical, sensory tension of Smoked Room.

Brioche bread with toasted yeast butter and grilled avocado, and red prawn with brown butter and yuzu kosho open the play of contrasts. Next come references to the Dani García universe such as Sharpening the Pencil (foie yogurt, pickled orange and shavings of smoked eel), before arriving at one of the menu’s most iconic and defining moments: the Nitro Tomato, presented here as a two-voice conversation. On one side, the Dani Brasserie version, with green gazpacho and red prawn tartare; on the other, Smoked Room’s interpretation, introducing a smoky register with smoked sturgeon, horseradish cream and caviar.

From this exchange, the journey moves into deeper, more character-driven creations, where embers, fire and long reductions appear explicitly: ribeye tartare with oxtail consommé infused with Sherry and black truffle; grilled sea cucumber with tripe jus and gochujang; olla gitana of tendons and mollusks with pumpkin, mint and elderflower; and grilled tuna collar with pork tail jus and grilled caviar. In the final stretch, roast duck with beetroot and black cherry jus leads into a sweet ending with personality, featuring icons such as roasted pumpkin and pistachio “Nutella” with homemade brioche.

The setting is also part of the narrative. Dani Brasserie is Dani García’s cosmopolitan gastronomic lookout in Madrid: a contemporary brasserie overlooking the city from above, blending urban energy, design and a cuisine that balances lightness and precision. Smoked Room, meanwhile, represents the chef’s most radical and sensory side: a concept built around fire, smoke and toasted nuances, where each course seeks intensity without losing clarity.

For one night, both concepts meet at the same table to showcase two complementary ways of understanding haute cuisine through emotion, technique and pleasure.

As with any great gastronomic occasion, the experience can be complemented with a wine pairing designed to converse with each course and enhance the contrast between smoke, embers and the menu’s fresher nuances. A limited-capacity event to experience, in a single service, two complementary culinary universes by Dani García — with Madrid at your feet.

If there’s an area in Madrid that exudes exclusivity, fashion, and—above all—high gastronomy, it’s the “Golden Mile.” Choosing a spot can be overwhelming given the abundance of options, but if you’re wondering where to eat in the Barrio de Salamanca and its surroundings, the answer has an Andalusian accent and a signature touch.

4. Leña: The Flames That Rule the Castellana

Which one will you choose today?

Some collaborations are born naturally. Others are celebrated as they deserve to be: with music, glasses raised, and the feeling of being part of something special.

Yesterday, El Coleccionista toasted with Persimmons and welcomed the new season with a party that brought together lovers of fine cocktails and the good life. A night to celebrate the meeting of two liquid universes with plenty to tell.

Because when El Coleccionista and Persimmons meet, the result is never accidental. It is pure intention.

A collaboration to be enjoyed, sip by sip

From today, this collaboration takes shape in two exclusive creations. A Persimmons cocktail, named Suli (meaning soulin Georgian), now part of El Coleccionista’s menu.

At the same time, an El Coleccionista signature cocktail, Mexican Penicillin, is served on the Persimmons menu. An elegant exchange, designed to travel from bar to bar.

In this way, El Coleccionista toasts with Persimmons not just for one night, but throughout the season—glass after glass.

Each creation reflects the character of its home: precision, balance, and an unexpected twist that invites you to come back for more.

The night it all began

The opening party, held yesterday, marked the beginning of this new chapter. Low lights, immersive music, and an atmosphere that encouraged guests to stay. Glasses moved from hand to hand, conversations intertwined, and the cocktails spoke for themselves. No explanations were needed.

Because El Coleccionista toasts with Persimmons is also understood through emotion—through that first sip that surprises and lingers in the memory.

El Coleccionista as the setting

Once again, El Coleccionista proved why it is much more than a cocktail bar. It is a space where every detail matters. The intimate atmosphere, the unhurried rhythm, and the attention to every gesture turn each visit into an experience. Here, cocktails are meant to be enjoyed without rush.

That is why this collaboration feels so natural. Because it shares the same way of understanding pleasure.

A toast that continues

From today, the cocktails from this collaboration are waiting on the menu. Ready for those looking for something different. For those who know that drinking well is also a way of celebrating—and that the best stories begin around a bar.

Because El Coleccionista toasts with Persimmons is not just a collaboration.
It’s an open invitation to experience it.

It becomes a bridge between the smoke on the plate and the depth in the glass.

This isn’t about matching flavours, but about aligning sensations.

The sommelier at Smoked Room crafts liquid narratives with precision and sensitivity.
Each label tells a story, each glass offers a quiet nod to the cuisine served that day.

Here, ingredients are transformed through embers, smoke and time, while every detail whispers intention.

A well-chosen glass can turn a smoky, creamy texture into a lasting memory.
Or allow a light sip to reveal the elegance of a deeper bite.

At Smoked Room, cuisine and wine meet eye to eye.
Together, they tell a complete and unforgettable story.

An invitation to reserve your experience

If you’re seeking an experience that unites haute cuisine, exceptional pairing and an intimate atmosphere, Smoked Room is an ode to fire and flavour.
