Located down a quiet street in Les Corts and away from the boisterous football fans, there sits a friendly, cosy restaurant. Armed with more than 30 different paella and rice dishes, whether you fancy a Valencian, oven-baked or with lobster, you’ll no doubt find what you’re after. It is a rustic restaurant, which boasts to serving some of the best paella in the city; and in all fairness, they were the pioneers of the Valencian style in Barcelona.
Here though you are welcome to eat according to the cullereta style, which basically means you can eat it straight from the paella pan with a wooden spoon. You can also order salads, fish and seafood dishes too, but you’ll have to eat these with yours hands, unless you ask for cutlery.
