Looking for a place to eat I was very hungry and I came across this place. It was afternoon and it was quite travelling as a solo traveller.
First impression clean and tidy thats how I like a place to eat to be. Only speaking English the owner and one of the waiting staff was very helpful to help me decide what I want eat and drink.
This is an upmarket bar and restaurant so expect to pay around €30 to €40 per person for starter, main meal, dessert and drinks. It is worth it, for me it was. See photos of menu, sorry I ate the food before taking photos of the food I ordered and I cleaned the plate empty it was that good. Must try the catalan creme brule for dessert my recommendation. My main grilled sea bass fish of the day special.
Dress casual smart to fit in. Great food...

The bread was crunchy and worked well with the sourness and sweetness of the tomato. The crispiness of the bread, the juiciness of the cannelloni, and the sourness of the lemonade. I had no idea this matchup could taste so good! And then to end the meal with a sweet Crema Catalana, that itself was paired with a sour fruit to balance out the sweetness…...
