The 13 Best New Restaurants in Barcelona | Eater

"In a city whose restaurant scene has been long ruled by the avant-garde, chef Alain Guiard has turned his back on modernist cuisine and returned to his more traditional roots. Located in one of Barcelona’s best-preserved medieval palaces, Restaurante A’s menu is dedicated to large, family-style dishes like Moorish chicken, shrimp carpaccio, and parmentier ravioli with wild mushrooms, truffles, and jamon Iberico. The environment is casual with prices to match, but the food is no less ambitious. For dessert, try the traditional torrijas — like a Spanish french toast — with smoked milk ice cream." - Isabel Conde
