Sobremesa, by Chef Vicente Patiño

Some lunches stop being just lunch in Front — housed in the most striking brutalist building on Valencia’s Marina, right by the Port Clock — has just dropped a new menu, and it’s already the talk of the town. Bold rice dishes, fresh catch of the day, fire-grilled plates that know exactly what they’re doing, and patatas bravas that pull off the near-impossible: making people talk about potatoes. All of it with the Mediterranean as your backdrop and that rare energy where great food meets great music. This isn’t just a meal — it’s the perfect excuse to carve out time in your week for something worth it.
