Tarragona romesco

Romesco is the most typical Tarragona dish that we can offer in our city’s restaurants, which mainly serve fish and seafood, but also meat and game. Moreover, it as a cold sauce that goes very well with starters, fish, seafood and meats.

Chartreuse

Chartreuse, which today is produced by Carthusian monks in Voiron, France, used to be made at their distillery in Tarragona until 1989.

The liqueur was created in 1605 when the monks were given an old manuscript containing the formula of an “elixir for long life”
