From October 23 to 29, Restaurant Ampar, located in the heart of Hospes Palau de la Mar Hotel (Valencia), will take center stage during one of the most anticipated gastronomic events of the year: the Valencia Culinary Festival 2025.
For this edition, Chef Carlos Julián presents a refined gourmet paired menu, available for both lunch and dinner — a culinary journey where wine, local ingredients, and creativity come together in perfect harmony.
🍷 A Gastronomic Journey with Signature Pairings
Ampar’s proposal is a tribute to Mediterranean cuisine with a contemporary twist, offering a menu that blends technique, sensibility, and exceptional pairings curated in collaboration with the renowned Chozas Carrascal Winery.
Set in an environment where historic architecture and modern design coexist with elegance, this experience captures the essence of gourmet hospitality that defines both Chef Carlos Julián and the Hospes universe.
