"Maleducat means “rude” in Spanish, but the only thing badly behaved here is you after spending a few hours exploring the extensive menu of natural Spanish and Catalan wines. This is the brainchild of three friends: brothers Marc and Ignasi García and chef Victor Ródenas—and while the latter may have cut his teeth in fine dining, here he has left formality behind. Maleducat breaks all the rules with dishes like fresh oysters pickled in roast chicken jus or beef tendon stew, topped with fried hake, Calamansi vinegar, and piparra peppers. The menu is a mix of bite-sized tapas and more substantial dishes, but everything is served tapas-style and meant for sharing." - Isabelle Kliger
