Fresquito was made for summer parties. The playful little sibling of the majestic Frescohallen serves authentic Spanish tapas by chef Christian Ponce. The concept is tailor-made for gatherings: many dishes, all shared, where no one leaves the table disappointed. Order another round. And then another. The atmosphere is lively, the flavours are a pleasant surprise, and the evening tends to take on a life of its own. Fresquito reminds us that the best parties aren’t planned, they simply happen.
