The story
Since opening its doors in 2013, Blanqueries has been a steadfast presence in Valencia's Barrio del Carmen, just steps from the iconic Torres de Serranos. The restaurant was founded on a clear principle: to cook honestly, using market-fresh, seasonal ingredients with a technique that is both personal and confident. Chefs Guillermo Pérez and Rubén Navarro lead the kitchen, crafting a style of modern cuisine that is rooted in Valencia but speaks a broader Mediterranean language.
The dining room is bright and characterful, a space that feels welcoming for both a weekday lunch and a special evening. The soul of the food is the product itself—unadorned but treated with skill. Dishes like the low-temperature egg with a stew of broad beans and peas, or the grilled corvina with all i pebre, showcase this approach. The menu changes with the season, and a tasting menu is available for those who want to explore the full range of the kitchen’s creativity.
This dedication to quality and value has not gone unnoticed. The Michelin Guide has awarded Blanqueries the Bib Gourmand distinction every year since 2016, a recognition for restaurants that offer exceptional food at a reasonable price. For the team, this award is a reflection of the work done daily in the kitchen, not a diploma to hang on the wall. It is a promise that eating well in Valencia need not be a luxury, but a consistent, flavorful reality.
