The new cocktail menu at Tragabuches, both in Marbella and Madrid, is a tribute to the essence of Andalusia. With the unmistakable signature of the Dani García universe, each creation blends tradition and creativity in perfect harmony.

The influence of fortified wines sets this cocktail selection apart. The versatility of Fino, Amontillado, and Pedro Ximénez adds deep and elegant nuances. From the Adonis PX, featuring Amontillado, red vermouth, and a touch of orange bitters, to the Fino Martini, where Fino and dry gin come together in an Andalusian take on the iconic classic.

Every March 9th, the International Spanish Omelet Day was celebrated a tribute to one of the most iconic dishes in Spanish cuisine. Its origin sparks debate, its preparation has countless variations, and its flavor wins over everyone. At Tragabuches, this classic is reinterpreted with the excellence of Andalusian cuisine.

The History of the Spanish Omelet

The origin of the Spanish omelet remains a mystery. Some theories suggest it was born in Navarra in the 18th century, while others claim it became popular in Extremadura. What is certain is that this dish has transcended borders and generations.

Traditionally, the Spanish omelet is made with eggs, potatoes, and salt. However, the eternal debate between “with onion” or “without onion” continues to divide fans of this beloved recipe. At Tragabuches, the Spanish omelet reaches a new level thanks to the quality of the ingredients and the impeccable technique of its chefs.

What Makes the Spanish Omelet So Special?

The secret to a great Spanish omelet lies in the quality of the ingredients. Perfectly cooked potatoes, free-range eggs, and top-tier extra virgin olive oil make all the difference. At Tragabuches, every detail is carefully considered to create a creamy texture and a perfectly balanced flavor.

Additionally, the Spanish omelet is incredibly versatile and suitable for any occasion—whether it’s a hearty breakfast, a light dinner, or the perfect tapas-style bite at the bar. Its simplicity and unmistakable taste have made it a true symbol of Spanish cuisine.

The Tragabuches Omelet: A Tribute to Tradition

At Tragabuches, the Spanish omelet is crafted with the respect that tradition deserves. Using carefully selected ingredients and flawless execution, the result is an irresistible dish. Its juicy texture and balanced flavor make it one of the restaurant’s standout offerings.

In addition to the classic recipe, Tragabuches offers two special versions, including the truffled onion Spanish omelet, a sophisticated take enhanced by the unmistakable aroma of black truffle.

Whether paired with a fine wine or as part of a tasting menu, the Tragabuches omelet proves that timeless dishes can still surprise. Because while gastronomy evolves, iconic recipes never go out of style.

February 26th is a key date on the culinary calendar—International Pistachio Day. This prized nut, renowned for its rich flavor and versatility, takes center stage in exquisite recipes. At Tragabuches, we celebrate with a dessert that pays homage to this green gem: Nutella de Pistachos de Granada.

A Nut with History and Flavor

Pistachios boast a millennia-old history. Originating from the Middle East, they were cherished by ancient civilizations such as the Persians and Romans. Their vibrant color and intense flavor have made them an essential ingredient in haute cuisine. In Spain, pistachios have found their perfect home in Andalusia, where the climate enhances their natural sweetness.

International Pistachio Day is also a great opportunity to highlight its health benefits. Rich in antioxidants, healthy fats, and proteins, pistachios support overall well-being. Their high fiber content aids digestion and helps regulate cholesterol. Beyond nutrition, their unique flavor and texture make them a true delight for the palate.

Nutella de Pistachos de Granada: The Star Dessert

At Tragabuches, tradition and creativity come together to offer unique dining experiences. Our Nutella de Pistachos de Granada is a refined interpretation of this beloved nut. It features two scoops of Nutella ice cream made from caramelized Andalusian pistachios, delicately infused with orange aroma. This exquisite combination awakens the senses and enhances the natural essence of pistachios.

Every spoonful of this dessert is a sensory journey. The creamy texture of the ice cream blends with the crunch of caramelized pistachios, creating an unparalleled experience. The citrus hint of orange adds freshness, balancing the sweetness to perfection. It’s a true tribute to local ingredients and our culinary craftsmanship.

At Tragabuches, Andalusian essence is present in every creation. Nutella de Pistachos de Granada reflects our passion for high-quality, locally sourced ingredients. Each Andalusian pistachio is carefully selected to ensure an unmatched taste experience.

Every January 30th, the world marks International Croissant Day. It’s a day to honor this iconic pastry that has won hearts and taste buds globally. With its crescent shape and buttery layers, the croissant is more than just a coffee companion. It embodies baking mastery and how simple food can deliver pure joy. Discover why this day invites us to savor life’s finest moments!

A Classic with a Rich History

Though often linked to France, the croissant’s story is more complex. Its roots trace back to the Austrian “kipferl,” a crescent-shaped pastry from the 17th century. The croissant became what we know today thanks to French bakers who introduced butter-layering techniques. This innovation gave it the flaky texture and unique flavor that define it.

Celebrating International Croissant Day is more than an excuse to indulge. It’s a chance to appreciate the artistry behind its creation. Each layer reflects dedication, and every bite preserves a timeless tradition.

The Croissant Around the World

International Croissant Day also highlights how this pastry has been reimagined across cultures. From chocolate-filled versions in Europe to savory options with ham and cheese, the croissant adapts to all tastes. In places like Japan and the U.S., bakers have pushed boundaries, blending local ingredients or creating hybrids like the cronut.

Croissants Worth Celebrating

In Spain, some restaurants elevate the croissant to gourmet status. At Tragabuches, their weekend breakfast croissants offer a unique experience, blending culinary excellence with tradition. Whether classic or innovative, these creations add even more reason to celebrate International Croissant Day.

So, why wait? Indulge in a croissant today and rediscover its timeless charm.
