Indian canteen with natural wines and Pakistani favorites
"From restaurateurs Majid and Mani Alam along with Bilal Khan, Achaar Bar is part of the growing roster of restaurants under the Alam Brothers umbrella. Their latest is an Indian canteen and natural wine bar named for the ubiquitous South Asian pickled vegetable condiment (which they make in-house). The menu spans the breadth of India, as well as adding in some Pakistani favorites like the Lahori samosa, a nod to the Alam brothers’ Punjabi roots. The 150 natural wines on offer have been curated by sommelier Irene Cavall to pair excellently with the bold seasoning, heat, and aromas of dishes like tandoor-roasted lamb chops, spicy coconut prawns, Madrasi vegetables, and Goan fish curry. This kitchen cranking out aloo paratha and palak pakoras has breathed new life to a space that was once an old warehouse, embracing the stripped-down post-industrial aesthetic that is omnipresent in Poblenou, a district akin to the Brooklyn of Barcelona. Order as much as you can; the menu isn’t huge, so with a handful of friends you might be able to try it all, and you’ll be happy you did." - Sam Zucker
