Welcome to the house of the sea
Begur’s Japanese table
«Can», home in the Empordà. «Kai», sea in Japanese.
Our philosophy
Where the Empordà meets Japan
With the sea and its catch right at hand, the meeting of the Empordà and Japan wasn’t ours to decide — it was bound to happen. We only bring respect and honesty, in no hurry, letting freshness lead.
The produce we choose
- Palamós prawn
- Rice from the Estany de Pals
- Balfegó tuna
The menu
Let your senses lead the way
Starters, sashimi, nigiri, maki and a sweet treat or two. It all goes in the middle of the table.
And to drink? Drinks menu
Want it to go? Take away menu
Meet our chef, Marc
Can Kai was born in 2015 from the hands of Marc Silvestre, a second-generation restaurateur. After a spell at Dos Palillos in Berlin, he opened the house with one idea: to bring Japanese cooking to the Costa Brava.
