Les Escaldes: Discovering The Culinary Authenticity of Andorra

Les Escaldes is a beautiful and cozy destination for foodies and thermal baths enthusiasts. Eatagram invites you to discover gastronomic wonders of this Andorran town.

Tucked away in the Pyrenees mountains, located along the picturesque banks of the river La Valira, Les Escaldes lures travelers with its gorgeous mountainous landscapes, the famous spa resort Caldea and sophisticated cuisine. The town’s culinary heritage has been enriched with French and Catalan influences, but the country’s gastronomic authenticity is the cornerstone of its dining tradition based on mountain cuisine with its hearty stews, cured meats, and artisan cheeses.

Not sure what to try first? You definitely should try trinxat, a thick potato and cabbage ragout infused with bacon or pancetta. They serve it hot with a drizzle of olive oil. Trinxat is perfect on a cold winter day after some hours spent in the mountains. Escudella is another variation of local stews, featuring meat, beans and seasonal veggies. The flavor is irresistible!

Les Escaldes is a gourmet paradise for meat and cheese enthusiasts.They will luxuriate in jamon serrano and queso de cabra. Be sure to order  a charcuterie board at a cozy restaurant and pair it with a glass of Andorran world-class wines. We prefer Riesling, locally called Escol. Here’s to your spa and gourmet vacation in Les Escaldes! 

What to choose when it comes to dessert? Opt for crema catalana. It’s an incredibly delicate creamy custard dessert with citrus and cinnamon flavors. It tastes divine and is a perfect compliment to your tea or coffee.

Les Escaldes will impress you with its hospitality, delicious food and breathtaking nature.
