Finding a decent restaurant in small-town Catalonia is not difficult... there are LOTS. Finding one with outdoor seating on the Sunday of a three-day weekend, without a reservation, in times of COVID, is much more challenging. We were SO HAPPY to find this place!
For a weekend "menu al dia" at only €18, the price point is excellent, especially since homemade rustic bread, wine, gaseosa, water and dessert are all included. The meals were all authentic Catalan. Duck with local bolets (seasonal mushrooms from the province). Grilled rabbit. Parts of a pig that don't make the typical American menu. Yeah, but also Catalan beef on the grill. Bacalao (cod) with an amazing sauce of cubed, sautéed local vegetables.
I would have gone a full five stars on these guys, except for the dessert. Our group of four tried several different desserts, and none of them appeared to be homemade. If anything, they seemed to all be from a big-box store's frozen section. Too bad. I hope they'll opt to make their own someday! read more
