The short list
What Appricio would tell you to do in Barcelona
Restaurant · Eixample
Gelida
Order whatever the handwritten daily menu says — this is the kind of place where the cook decides and you agree.
Bar · Sarrià-Sant Gervasi
Bar El Tomàs de Sarrià
Order the patatas bravas — this is the place Barcelona locals point to when arguments about the city's best break out, and the sauce here ends the debate.
Café · Castelldefels
Forn de Pa Uruguaià Zitarrosa
A Uruguayan bakery in Castelldefels with 2,075 reviews and a 4.
Park · El Prat de Llobregat
Parc Nou
A proper neighborhood park in El Prat de Llobregat, the kind locals use for morning walks and weekend football rather than anything on a tourist itinerary.
Restaurant · Castelldefels
Kinza Villa
A Georgian and Caucasian kitchen sitting quietly in Castelldefels, the kind of place locals drive to rather than stumble upon — order the khachapuri, the khinkali dumplings, and whatever the kitchen…
Barcelona, decided in 30 seconds.
