And Now You Know

At its peak, over 300,000 people attempted to book a table at El Bulli every year; the restaurant is able to serve approximate 8,000 meals (160 nights per year x 50 servings per evening). Tables for the entire season sold out in 1 day.
The name "El Bulli" was chosen because original owners Hans and Marketta Schilling owned French bulldogs, a breed colloquially known as "bulli".
El Bulli originally operated as a minigolf and then later as a beach bar. The first restaurant opened in 1964.
