The local cuisine in San Baudilio de Llobregat is rooted in Catalan traditions, featuring fresh, seasonal ingredients and Mediterranean flavors. One of the most popular local dishes is Escudella, a hearty Catalan stew made with meat, vegetables, and pasta, often enjoyed during colder months. Another specialty is Botifarra, a type of sausage that is commonly grilled and served with beans or vegetables.
Seafood plays a central role in the local diet, given the city’s proximity to the Mediterranean.
