Serra, a Town nailed in full Nature reserve of the Saw Calderona and that preserves important remains of the Arab epoch, like the castle and several towers that were completing the defensive network. Also, in his municipal term the Carthusian order of Portaceli is, one monumental architectural set of exceptional value. Precisely, opposite to the Moslem tower it rises, in the center of Serra, the restaurant “Casa Granary ”, that can think in these moments as one of the best of the Valencian Community. Víctor Navarro (“Granero ” for all) and Mónica, his wife, there is based his prestige in a constant and tireless work, in search and find of the best ways of preparing the plates fundamental of the Valencian traditional kitchen. There, in “Casa Granary ”, succulent “fideuàs they can taste exquisite Valencian paellas, “rossetjats ”, ” and a long list of indigenous specialties.

SLAUGHTERING OF THE PIGS IN SERRA

For the next Monday, February 28, already an appointment has fixed “Casa Granary ” in Serra and in Náquera. They go to celebrate them, one more year, gastronomic days of the slaughtering of the pigs, that some will last fifteen days, until eves of flaws. On Monday, at midday, it will have place, in accordance with the ancestral ritual, already almost eliminated in our Towns and with a rigorous veterinary control, the slaughter of the pig and his later quartering, in a festive ambience in which neither the orchestra nor the gunpowder is missing. We have been able only to attend an event of these characteristics in the environment in two restaurants of the province of Valencia: in “Casa On Sunday ” (Ademuz) and “Granero ” (Serra). I believe that it is very well raised, like homage to our biggest, which the cold winter days were assembling in his Towns and villages during , to expire together with his friends and relatives the whole ritual, which was implying the later making of the blood sausages, sausages and sausages, the preparation of the hams and the simultaneous tasting of the exquisitenesses of an animal domestic that takes advantage entirely.
