Innovative, fashionable and defiantly cool, Arola is relaxed and chilled. A disciple of Ferrán Adrià of Barcelona with whom he worked for eight years, Sergi Arola’s twin passions are music and food and he enjoys a rare culinary pedigree.

Arola’s menus offer a creative and contemporary twist to Portu-guese cuisine, mixing tradition and heritage with his inimitable modern approach. Like his mentor, Arola seeks to give diners unexpected contrasts of flavor and texture with the ultimate aim of provoking, surprising and delighting his guests.

Food will be available through the day and during dinner Arola’s take on the Portuguese tapas will vie with more complicated main courses. Wines will be served from a transparent cellar, situated mid-restaurant.
