Concierge.com's insider take:

Like its more famous competitor Quimet & Quimet, this neighborhood tapas bar and restaurant in Sant Antoni specializes in conservas (gourmet canned products, which were highly revered before mass refrigeration), charcuterie, and cheeses. Lucio, the proprietor, will happily spend hours discussing the merits of home-cured anchovy filets, Italian cheeses, and cured sausages from the inland town of Vic. He'll also encourage shy types to try new things, such as oil-softened mojama (air-cured tuna loin) and bricks of Catalan meat loaf, made by Lucio's wife, Mariel. Mariel is also responsible for the more formal, brick-lined cellar dining room, which specializes in sturdy, often sensational home cooking, such as fresh foie gras with mangoes and hearty game stews. The menu changes daily depending on what's available in the market.

Closed Sundays and Mondays.
