La Flauta
La Flauta Review
The name of this boisterous restaurant refers to the staple flutelike loaves of slipper bread used for sandwiches here. There are also infinite numbers of tapas and small portions of everything from wild mushrooms in season to wild asparagus or xipirones (baby octopuses) served in this vast counter space flanked with dozens of tables. Try a sobrassada (pork paste with paprika from Majorca) flauta (thin sandwich). A second, equally excellent location is in Eixample at Carrer Aribau 23.
