The story

Jornades del Bacalla Andorra la Vella in Andorra la Vella restaurants

The Jornades del Bacallà brings together more than twenty Andorra la Vella restaurants over roughly two weeks in spring, each creating a special salt cod dish, judged in a tasting competition at the Congress Centre, reviving an event inactive for seventeen years and pairing a historic mountain ingredient with contemporary, fusion-leaning cooking.

A tasting competition judged at the Congress Centre, with named winning dishes rather than a vague "best of" label, gives the Jornades del Bacallà a sharper edge than a typical restaurant-week promotion.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The named, judged tasting competition with specific winning dishes, a leek-cream cod plate, a cod brandade served as an Irish coffee, a miso-and-chipotle cod dish, gives this event a documented culinary range rather than a generic food-week format, and its revival after seventeen years of inactivity ties it to a deliberate civic effort to reinforce Andorra la Vella's restaurant scene rather than a routine annual promotion repeated without real change
