“Tirada de l’Art” is one of the most representative
and traditional activities of Lloret de
Mar. This ancient fishing technique consists
of throwing a bag-shaped net from a boat and
pulling it onto the sand from the beach.
A
popular feast is prepared with the catch. For several years the town’s restaurants have
been celebrating this tradition with the “Cuina
de l’Art” gastronomic days.
Participants in
this activity get the chance to discover typical
recipes of Lloret de Mar through this tradition,
both tasting and preparing the dishes
themselves.
Although this might seem a very
complicated task, it is made much easier
thanks to the expertise of the local professional
chefs who are on hand to show them
how to do it and not die trying!
