Fodor's Expert Review Cruix
With an eight-course tasting menu priced at just €35, Cruix is the fine-dining restaurant for people who don't want to spend 200 euros on a meal. Everything here is laid-back and unpretentious, including the exposed-brick interior, but the quality speaks to the Chef Miquel Pardo's pedigree: he worked under Spanish superstar chefs like Albert Adrià and Jordi Cruz before opening Cruix in 2017. Menus vary with the seasons but you can be sure to find tasty tidbits like the nigiri made of fuet (or Catalan sausage), the cod churros and a show-stopping rice with shrimp, served in a layer so thin it stays crunchy all the way through.
