EL BORN in BGC: Serving Catalan Mediterranean Cuisine
What perhaps draws us closer to restaurants, aside from their mouthwatering dishes, exquisite wines & cocktails, and impeccable service, is the story behind them. Every restaurant carries a unique tale of struggles, triumphs, heritage, and even romance, which not only sets them apart but also makes each dining experience more personal and memorable.
EL BORN in BGC, which made its debut on July 1, 2023, on the second floor of the luxurious MITSUKOSHI BGC mall, is a special place for Chef David and his wife, Ivone, as the restaurant serves as a culmination of their love for Barcelona, Spain where all their culinary journeys took place.

When it comes to their specialty dishes, EL BORN showcases the essence of Catalan Mediterranean cuisine that highlights the use of fresh and organic produce, from vegetables to meats and seafood, as well as the aroma of different herbs and spices.

Another chef’s recommendation is the Lubina Al Horno, which is baked seabass on a bed of potatoes, the perfect dish to try if you want a taste of authentic Mediterranean cuisine for lunch or dinner. Pair this dish with a glass of wine, to complete your EL BORN dining experience!
