  Plat Únic, the restaurant located on the ground floor of the Yurbban Trafalgar Hotel has no menu as such, serving just one choice of meal that changes according to the season, from noon till dinner, Monday through Saturday uninterrupted (from 1 PM to 10:30 PM). Since its inauguration last July, this unusual space has offered the formula Gerra i costellam (Galician beef rack served with a variety of sauces and marinades, pickles and seasonal garnishes, followed by a dessert, with wine, diners can refill their carafe as many times as they like. Now, in line with that philosophy, the dish is escudella amb carn d'olla (pasta broth followed by stewed meat and vegetables) perfect for the cold winter days ahead combined with a brazo de crema (cream sponge) to finish.

  Lumaconi & Galets del Nadal

  As an alternative to eating out on these dates when you can prefer to gather at home around the table, the firm Sandro Desii proposes the traditional galets and the Lumaconi from the La Bianca Pasta & Salute collection. In both cases slow-drying at low-temperature pasta, made with Italian durum wheat semolina with egg, and the second ones enriched with Omega 3 of vegetable origin, which contributes to maintain normal cholesterol levels and therefore with beneficial effects for cardiovascular health.   

  Galets, in addition to serving them in escudella, can be boiled with beef broth and presented in tomato soup.
