Why ComePorketa is the healthy restaurant in the Eixample you didn’t see coming

The technique that makes this a genuinely healthy restaurant

The porketa at ComePorketa is not your average pork belly. The process takes 12 hours: house-made rubs, slow cooking and indirect-heat smoking. The result is a piece that’s crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and with a fat content well below what you’d get from traditionally cooked pork belly.

🔥 Less fat. Same pleasure. No compromise.

Indirect-heat cooking reduces fat by up to 70% compared to conventionally cooked pork belly. This isn’t marketing. It’s applied heat physics in the kitchen.

Everything made in-house

At ComePorketa, there are no packets and no pre-cooked shortcuts. The breads — charcoal black, Hawaiian, brioche, bagel — come straight out of our kitchen. So do the sauces. And the handmade desserts. When everything is made from scratch, you control what goes into every dish. That’s what eating healthy really looks like.

The numbers speak for themselves

Opened in August 2024. Over 20,000 porketas served in the first year. A rating of 4.9 on Google and 8.9 on TheFork. When people keep coming back like that, something’s clearly going right. 🥩
