Pahissa del Mas

Pahissa del Mas occupies the historic Mas Pou farmhouse, originating in 1352, nestled in Pals on the Costa Brava. Owned by the Pericay family for seven generations, the restaurant cultivates its own rice in nearby paddies, integrating this local heritage into its culinary identity. Chef Jordi Vallespí guides the kitchen, blending tradition with innovation while honoring high-quality seasonal ingredients sourced from the surrounding land and market. The menu evolves each season to highlight fresh products, focusing on rice dishes that reflect Catalan agricultural richness and creative techniques. Specialties include rice with rockfish, octopus and black trumpet mushrooms, as well as wild boar with foie. Other dishes feature morro de bacallà with roasted cauliflower cream and lamb shoulder paired with beetroot, honey, and rosemary. Set within a carefully restored 14th-century farmhouse, Pahissa del Mas offers an intimate atmosphere enriched by historical charm and views of the rice fields. The dining experience connects deeply to its heritage through both place and cuisine, expressing respect for Catalonian culture in every detail. Special tasting menus provide refined, sensory journeys for guests seeking sophisticated flavors.
