You’re desperately trying to avoid the crowds in the ever popular area of Eixample, but can’t decide whether to eat Vietnamese, American or Catalan cuisine. Then, image the unlikeness of Me Restaurant, a young hybrid opened by Thang Pham and Javier Navarro Alemany. With a combined passion for good food, between them, they manage to serve up mouth-watering monkfish with confit of specs and speck, alongside New Orleans firecracker shrimps with tartar sauce. The soft shell crab in tempura is just as yummy as it sounds and to top it all off, they do a four-course lunchtime special for a more than reasonable price.

The wild differences of these disparate groups are noted widely in their personalised setting. It’s a place where ties hang loosly from lamps and illustrated murals sit on a open brick wall, naturally.
