🍴 Mercado Colón’s Hidden Gem: Ricard Camarena’s Chill Michelin-Level Spot Tucked inside the stunning Mercado Colón, this casual eatery from Michelin-starred chef Ricard Camarena is a total standout. Think: high-quality dishes with zero stuffiness—just relaxed vibes and flavors that make you go “wow.” The catch? No reservations, so you’ve gotta move fast (especially at mealtimes 👀). But trust me: every second of waiting is worth it. 🌟 The Must-Order Dishes Ensaladilla tártara con salmón ahumado 🥗 Creamy potato salad meets tangy tartar sauce and smoky salmon—layers of salty, fresh, and rich that hit perfectly as an appetizer. Light enough to whet your appetite, but satisfying enough to make you pause and savor. Berenjena frita con mojo, queso feta y perejil 🍆 Crispy-fried eggplant (outer crunch, inner softness) tossed in zesty mojo sauce, crumbly feta, and fresh parsley. It’s a flavor explosion—tangy, cheesy, and herbaceous—you’ll scrape the plate clean. Pepito de ternera con cebolla, mostaza y queso 🥪 A warm, messy masterpiece: tender beef, caramelized onions, zingy mustard, and melted cheese, all stuffed into a soft roll. Juicy, savory, and so comforting—no fancy frills, just pure deliciousness. Tiramisú de cafe y amaretto 🍰 Save room—this dessert is a showstopper. A giant portion of tiramisu with bold coffee and amaretto notes, creamy mascarpone, and that perfect balance of sweet and boozy. Three people could split it, but you might not want to share 🤤. 📍 Deets to Know Location: Inside Mercado Colón (that beautiful, historic market—worth exploring even after your meal!). Reservations: Nope—first come, first served. Hit it off-peak (early lunch, late dinner) to skip the rush. After eating, wander the market, snap some photos, or grab a drink—Mercado Colón’s vibe is perfect for hanging with friends or soaking up Valencia’s food scene. This spot proves that great food doesn’t need to be fancy—just fresh, thoughtful, and full of heart. #ValenciaEats #MercadoColon #HiddenGems
