This is a tour to taste the local and seasonal products from Figueres fruit and vegetable market and its transformation in Can Jeroni kitchen, paired with the regional wines
The tour begins at the Balcó Mirador de la Plaça del Mercat de Figueres, located on the first floor of Plaça Catalunya, from where you can see the fruit and vegetable market stalls that are open to the public every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. With a welcome tasting we will discover the dairy products of Japet dels Bous and the honeys of Lluch Apicultors, a tasting that we will accompany with a sweet wine with the Empordà Designation of Origin. We will go down to visit farmers’ stalls such as els Quatre Vents de Vilafant and butchers’ stalls such as Embotits Ginjaume d’Avinyonet de Puigventós. We will taste fresh produce, olive oils, nuts, sausages and other local delicacies.
Then we have a seasonal rice meal at Can Jeroni, a family restaurant located in the market square and run by chef Roser Bronsoms, the fourth generation of women at the helm of this century-old business. Authentic Catalan traditional dishes made with local products, with the fork breakfasts as a specialty. We will combine it with a white Empordà wine made from native varieties.
This tour includes 2 glases of wine, a few tapas in the market stalls and the restaurant Can Jeroni.
