Innovative nouvelle chef Jordi Vila, at the tender age of 29, has created in the minimalist spaces of Alkimia a wild foray into the netherworld of Spanish cuisine. Standard gazpacho in his hands becomes a tart apple gazpacho floating tender oysters. Grilled dorado is topped with a romesco sauce, traditionally a blend of sweet peppers and tomatoes, but here infused with fresh strawberries. One can be certain that by the time the dessert list is passed around it will be something like a hot hazlenut tart with apricots in a Muscatel wine sauce or perhaps an egg yolk ice cream with caviar. The less adventurous needn’t feel left out; the restaurant offers a choice of traditional Spanish fare, namely roast kid and grilled fish with olive oil and salt. To test the bounds, try the four-course tasting menu.
