Rechercher un restaurant du Guide MICHELIN

If you’re keen to move away from the classic restaurant circuit in Barcelona, head to Poble Sec, a quiet district at the foot of the Montjuic hill, and just a stone’s throw from the legendary Paral·lel avenue. This taberna has just a few tables in the dining room, hence the opportunity to watch the chefs at work in the open kitchen behind the bar. The single surprise menu evolves with the seasons (the fish and seafood are outstanding) with meticulous attention paid to creamy textures and the pairing of ingredients. The name of the restaurant (Northwest in English) is in reference to the origins of owner-chefs Javier and David, as one hails from La Coruña, the other from Salamanca, hence the fusion between Galician, Castilian and Catalan cooking. Guests here are all served at the same time so it’s important to arrive punctually!
