Castell Perelada

A medieval castle with a lake terrace, private dining rooms in the towers, and a cheese trolley running to fifty-plus varieties will do a lot of the heavy lifting before the food even arrives. This Michelin-starred fine dining restaurant in Catalonia takes its creative menus from recipes found in the castle's own archives, with the kitchen focusing on a different century each year, which is either charming or the best possible excuse to keep changing the tasting menu.
