What is the Carvalho Dinner
The Carvalho Dinner, or Sopar de Carvalho, is the annual homage dinner hosted by the Novembre Negre festival. In its 17th edition, the event pays tribute to writer Manuel Vázquez Montalbán and his detective Pepe Carvalho, a character renowned for solving cases and his passion for cooking and fine dining.
As in previous editions, the organisers present the dinner as a staple event of the festival, blending crime literature and gastronomy in Port de Sagunt.
What the menu includes
The Carvalho Dinner menu is prepared by Restaurant La Costanera in Port de Sagunt and features a full menu based on recipes scattered throughout the pages of the detective’s novels. It’s a way to bring to life the dishes Vázquez Montalbán described in Carvalho’s series.
How to book
Seats for the Carvalho Dinner can be reserved directly at Restaurant La Costanera from 7 November, as announced by the Novembre Negre organisers.
