6 Best Day Trips from Barcelona, and the Itinerary to Know for Each | Condé Nast Traveler
"In Catalan, ‘baluard’ translates as bastion, so it makes sense to find this restaurant built into part of an old sea wall. That also gives you an idea of just how close to the ocean it is. Beg for the table by the window and the fishing boats and soft wave ripples practically feel within touching distance. Though at least half your eye-line will consist of a thick band of blue sky. Inside, the décor is simple and rustic: white walls with paintings of the ocean, and cozy arched ceilings that make it feel like a den. There’s nothing overly fancy in terms of the cooking—most simply grilled or oven-baked—but that’s the point. When the fish is that fresh you don’t need bells and whistles to compensate. Go for lunch, for the freshest fish of your trip. Any dining companion will be happy with that." - Gemma Askham,Jessica Benavides Canepa
