Anchovy tapa on bread facing the sea

Anxova Tapas Route 2026

“A Piece of Empúries”

Gastronomy

The representation of the three cultures that have shaped this place on the Costa Brava, the Greeks, the Romans and the Mediterranean that we know today.

The process step by step.

Empezamos con el pan de xeixa como base (harina antigua recuperada), seguimos con una capa de mantequilla de hierbas de nuestro propio huerto, representando el Mediterraneo que conocemos hoy. Seguimos con un punto crujiente, las almendras tostadas, como guiño a Grecia, y en honor a Roma, añadimos unos higos confitados con mulsum (vino romano endulzado con miel). Terminamos con un toque salado que romperá el dulzor del higo, y representa el mar, la anchoa. Finalmente, unas gotitas de oxygarum para dar salinidad y acidez, y decoramos con un toque de hinojo marino.
A combination that gives us different textures and flavors: crispy, creamy, sweet, salty and acidic.

Our involvement in the cover.

At Hostal Empúries, we work with local suppliers and seasonal products to be respectful of the environment and preserve the heritage to which we belong.

This tapa is not only a bite of gastronomy, but also a journey through the history of the place and the values it represents.
