Tapeo

Here you'll find very well-done classic tapas and Catalan cuisine with a touch of creativity. Though Tapeo is in C/Montcada, a street with loads of foot traffic thanks to the Picasso Museum, the prices are as friendly as if it were out of town. It's not a tourist trap but a top-class tapas bar, with Dani Rueda (former head chef at Tapaç24) at the helm. Enjoy cannelloni stuffed with 'morcilla' sausage, calamari 'a la Catalana', Santa Pau beans... Ask for a seat in the dining room if you want something a bit more tranquil than sitting at the lively bar.
