La Tomatina of Buñol began on the last Wednesday of August in 1945, when a spontaneous scuffle during the town’s parade ended with tomatoes being thrown from a nearby vegetable stall. What started as a prank returned year after year to become an official celebration: a joyful, wildly messy tradition rooted in community, humor, and a whole lot of tomatoes

Some of our Boqueria team had the chance to watch yesterday’s eclipse from Delta de l’Ebre on the Mediterranean

Every so often someone tells us our dining room is too dim, and they can’t see their plate. Fair, but this Wednesday Spain has us beat. A Coruña to Bilbao to Valencia to Mallorca, an eclipse will darken a large swath of the country for about a minute.

What people say
Spanish restaurants are known for their lively atmosphere, vibrant flavors, and delicious tapas. Boqueria UES on Second Avenue in New York perfectly embodies all of these qualities and more. This Barcelona-inspired tapas bar offers a contemporary space where guests can enjoy Spanish classics, seasonal specials, and curated cocktails.
One of the standout features of Boqueria UES is their commitment to using fresh, high-quality ingredients in all of their dishes and drinks. Their Valencia zero-proof summer refrescante is a perfect example of this, featuring Grove infused with orange, blood orange, mandarin, fresh lemon, lemongrass, and ginger. And with the region of Valencia being known as the Orchard Of Spain for its abundance of oranges, you know you're getting an authentic taste of Spain.
But it's not just the drinks that impress at Boqueria UES. Their spring menu offers a variety of options that will leave you wanting to try them all. And if you can't decide between them? Just get them all! The hanger steak with black garlic almond romesco is a particular favorite among guests.
And let's not forget about the socarrat - that crispy layer at the bottom of a paella pan that's considered a delicacy in Spain. At Boqueria UES, they make sure to give you the last spoonful so you can savor every last bite.
Overall, Boqueria UES is a must-visit for anyone looking for an authentic Spanish dining experience in New York City. With delicious food and drinks served in a lively atmosphere, it's no wonder why this tapas bar has become such a popular spot among locals and tourists alike.
