( 93 317 30 22; Carrer Quintana 5; mains €8-14; lunch & dinner Tue-Sat, lunch Sun; Liceu)
Founded in 1786, Barcelona's oldest restaurant is still going strong, with tourists and loc-
als flocking to enjoy its rambling interior, old-fashioned tile-filled decor, and enormous
helpings of traditional Catalan food. The multicourse lunch specials (€12.80) are good
value.

Catalan
( 93 319 82 53; Carrer de Lledó 1; mains €13-17; Mon-Fri; Jaume I) Expect a mix of tradi-
tional dishes with creative twists. At lunchtime, Ajuntament (town hall) office workers
pounce on the menú del día (€14, or €10 at the bar). Later, it is more romantic, as low
lighting emphasises the intimacy of the timber ceiling and wooden decor. Offerings range
from chuletón (huge T-bone steak) for two to guatlla farcida de foie d'ànec i botifarra
amb salsa de ceps (quail stuffed with duck foie gras and sausage with a mushroom sauce).

Vegetarian
( 93 301 85 10; Baixada de Sant Miquel 3; mains €9-16; dinner Mon-Sat; Jaume I)
Black-and-white marble floors, a smattering of old wooden tables and ramshackle dis-
plays of instruments (most made on-site) lend a certain bohemian charm to this small ve-
getarian restaurant. The pizzas are delicious here, and feature organic ingredients - as do
the flavourful galettes, dessert crêpes and bountiful salads.
CERVECERÍA TALLER DE TAPAS €€
Spanish
(
93 481 62 33; Carrer Comtal 28; mains €8-15;
10am-midnight Mon-Sat, from noon Sun;
Ur-
quinaona) Amid white stone walls and a beamed ceiling, this buzzing, easygoing place
serves a broad selection of tapas as well as changing daily specials like cochinillo (roast
suckling pig). A smattering of beers from across the globe - Leffe Blond, Guinness,
Brahma (Brazil) and Sol (Mexico) - add to the appeal.
