Sant Pau

$$$$, Catalan, Outside Barcelona


Fodor's Review:

Carme Ruscalleda's Sant Pol de Mar treasure, one of the six top restaurants below the Pyrenees (and maybe the best of the six, if you lean toward modern yet classical) is a scenic 40-minute train ride along the beach from Plaça Catalunya'sRENFE station: the Calella train stops at the door. Inside are a warm glow and clean, spare lines, with a garden overlooking the Mediterranean. Dishes change with the seasons, but be alert for vieiras (scallops) with crisped artichoke flakes on roast potato, and lubina (sea bass) on baby leeks and chard in garnatxa (sweet Catalan wine) sauce. If you're there for Sant Jordi, Barcelona's Valentine's Day, you might score a misiva de amor (love letter), a pastry envelope containing julienned berries and peaches.
