As much tapas bar as restaurant, Cal Pep is always packed: get here early for the coveted seats at the front. There is a cosy dining room at the back, but it's a shame to miss the show. The affable Pep will take the order steering the neophytes towards the trifásico - a mélange of fried whitebait, squid rings and shrimp. Other favourites are the exquisite little tallarines (wedge clams), and botifarra sausage with beans. Then, squeeze in four shot glasses of foam - coconut with rum, coffee, crema catalana and lemon.
