This new edition of the gastronomic calendar is strengthened by the introduction of the new BOCA (It's Good if it's from Cambrils) quality seal, designed to identify the commitment of establishments to local produce and the territory. For almost a month, participating restaurants will offer special menus and main dishes featuring prawn (galera).
“"The BOCA distinction is not just a label, but a tool to certify the commitment of local catering to preserve traditions and strengthen the connection between producers, chefs, and diners, consolidating Cambrils as a gastronomic reference."
The main novelty this year is the international creative cooking competition, the Cambrils Galera Challenge Repsol, open to professional chefs worldwide. This new competition joins the existing contest for young chefs, which in its 21st edition offers access to the professional category as a prize.
The parallel activities program includes a conference on climate change and territorial adaptation, the traditional 'popular prawn tasting' (galerada popular) on Sunday, February 8 at the port, and guided visits to the Fishermen's Guild on Fridays in February. The finals of the gastronomic competitions will be held on February 20 and 23 at the Cambrils School of Hospitality and Tourism and Parc Samà, respectively.
