Botafumeiro

C/Gran de Gràcia 81

Love it or hate it (and the size, racket and overwhelmingly arriviste diners mean no one leaves undecided), there’s no denying Botafumeiro’s success, and its literally dozens of tables are rarely empty for very long. The speciality is excellent Galician seafood, served with military precision by the fleet of nautically clad waiters. Non-fishy dishes include a rich caldo gallego (cabbage and pork broth) and lacón con grelos (gammon with turnip tops).

    I have been in this wonderful place last weekend for the first time in my life and I have to admit that it was the best restaurant in seafood I have ever eat in. I am looking forward to visit it again. Food is delicious ... people are very nice Posted on Jan 23 2008 13:17
