100 years in the making

La Costa BravaLa Costa Brava, located in northeastern Cataluna, is celebrating its 100 year anniversary. For the past 100 years, this region of Spain has been home to many of the country’s greatest artists, as well as actors, poets and writers. It has also been the setting for numerous films due to it’s attractive surroundings. The Elipsos, a premier overnight train service, operates a few trains that travel through La Costa Brava.

on the following services: The Joan Miro, which travels from Barcelona to Pars and vice versa, The Pau Casals, traveling between Barcelona and Zurich, and Salvador Dali, carrying passengers from Barcelona to Milan and the reverse.

On these three routes, passengers can indulge in the new menu. This fabulously divine Centennial menu includes Steamed Anchovies with baked onions, peppers and eggplant, which will fill the mouth with the flavors of the sea, truly evoking the tastes of La Costa Brava. Cod Ratatouille, another centennial contribution, is a delightful fusion of the sea and mountains which creates a well-balanced combination and will leave you wanting the recipe! And a true treat, Baked Apples. Apples baked with sugar, sounds simple but it is true heaven! This dish is a traditionally authentic dessert of the region of Girona.

The special Centennial menu was worked on by top chefs including Ferran Adria and Joan Roca, both Michelin star-rated chefs of the region. The Centennial menu is served in the dining car on the select Elipsos services through the Spring of 2010. And the best part, if you select the Gran Class ticket, the meal is included with your reservation.

Don’t miss out on this mouth-watering menu, book your trip today on Elipsos and enjoy every bite!
