"Tourists are par for the course in any beachfront paella joint like this one overlooking Bogatell Beach, but what sets Can Fisher apart is the high ratio of locals—giving it the Barcelona stamp of credibility. Fishy treats come in all shapes and sizes, from the delectable red shrimp carpaccio, to freshly shucked oysters, anchovies dripping in olive oil, steamed mussels, and the salt-baked fresh turbot. But, again, the real highlight here is the wide range of paellas. From the finger-licking soupy rice with lobster, to the pre-peeled young gentleman’s rice, or Arroz del Señorito—especially designed for the young gentleman who prefers not to get his dainty hands dirty—to the black squid-ink rice with baby squid, Padrón peppers, and alioli, the selection is so good it’s almost impossible to choose just one." - Isabelle Kliger, Gemma Askham
