The fusion of the services of Autocares Juliá,
TurismeBarcelona y Restaurante Gaig has given rise to the Gourmet Bus, designed and created by Josep Cortina. The Michelin-starred
experience is reinvented, beyond our expectations, in a sightseeing coach which
offers the service of an haute cuisine restaurant.
The route includes the most iconic places in
the city, and the tour is enhanced by a number of 360º cameras placed
strategically in the coach, which enable passengers to see their surroundings from
another perspective on a screen found in each seat.
Halfway through the trip, the coach stops in an
spectacular location in the city, where a gourmet menu is served. The dishes,
produced by chef Carles Gaig, are chosen to showcase the best of Catalan cuisine.
To allow the fusion of the sightseeing tour and
the haute cuisine meal, the bus has been totally redesigned; reworking both its
exterior and interior, modifying spaces, customising chairs and tables, and
changing lighting, wall and floor coverings. The Gourmet Bus has been created with the aesthetics and facilities of
a restaurant, including a kitchen to prepare the food, two bathrooms, and a new
air conditioning system, housed in the glass roof.
