The "El Arroz de Castelldefels" initiative was launched to establish a unique culinary identity for the city, based on seasonal products and local tradition. El Péndulo Restaurant is one of the fifteen establishments championing this proposal, offering a Mediterranean dining experience with a contemporary twist.
The recipe for this emblematic dish reflects the spirit of the city, situated between the sea and the natural park of Garraf, combining sea and mountain in a perfect balance.
The official recipe for this rice dish uses ingredients reflecting the local landscape, including cuttlefish and prawns from the Mediterranean, pork ribs, artichoke, green beans, thyme, and bomba rice. This combination aims to provide an experience intrinsically linked to the Castelldefels territory.
Located on the Ribera de Sant Pere and part of the Grupo Soteras, El Péndulo is known for its dual function as a restaurant and beach club. Chef José Martínez Miralles has designed a menu that merges Mediterranean tradition with contemporary creativity, highlighting dishes like Steak tartare or tuna with foie and caramelized onion, in addition to the local rice.
The venue offers a versatile atmosphere, ideal for relaxed seafront lunches or festive evenings with cocktails and music. Visitors on platforms like Tripadvisor praise the professional service and value for money in a privileged setting.
