La Broche Review

Previously helmed by top chef Sergi Arola, La Broche is now in the equally able hands of his erstwhile disciple Angel Palacios, a recent winner of the prestigious Bocusse Trophy. Enter the elegant and spacious lobby of the Hotel Occidental Miguel Angel and, on your left, you'll find the select dining enclave that attracts discerning gourmets. Deluxe ingredients, personally selected by the chef and changed to take advantage of the best in any season, are fashioned into some of the capital's most flavor-filled dishes. Start with raw seafood and seawater gelée, and then proceed into the heavenly and continually changing main courses. Even the bread placed on your table is freshly made and the creative desserts such as helado de yoghurt de rosas con mandarina y almendra amarga. (yogurt ice cream made from roses, mandarin oranges, and bitter almond yogurt) are out of this world.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
