Two and a half hours on a boat with the table laid: starters, a paella or rice dish of your choice, dessert and a drink · €50 per person · from 6 people.

Eating in the middle of the lake
Paella was born in the rice fields of the Albufera, and here you eat it in the very landscape where the grain is grown. Rosa y Tonet take it a step further: the table is on the boat. You leave from the jetty at El Palmar, take a first trip to see the lake and the canals and, when the time comes, the boat becomes a dining room. You spend about two and a half hours on the water, and the return with the boatman ends with a visit to a Valencian barraca next to the jetty.
What you eat and what it costs
The menu is prepared by Restaurante La Albufera. It starts with bread with tomato and allioli, seasonal salad, homemade croquettes, esgarrat and a cheese board. For the main course you choose a rice dish for the table: paella valenciana, seafood paella, black rice, arroz a banda, rice with lobster, fideuà or arroz del senyoret. For dessert, chocolate cake, and one drink per person: wine, beer, soft drink or water.
Rosa y Tonet publish €50 per person from Monday to Friday and €5 more per person at weekends, with a minimum of six people. Elsewhere on the same page there is a rate of €165 for two and €50 per extra person: confirm the price when you book. You choose the time, normally between 12:00 and 15:00.
Who it is for
For a group of friends or a large family who want to celebrate something without a restaurant table. It works well with children: there is space, and you can look at the water between courses. If there are fewer than six of you, the alternative is the 45-minute boat trip and lunch afterwards at Bon Aire or Nou Racó.
