9Pla
Next on our top list is Pla, located at Bellafila, 5, one of the alleys of the Gothic Quarter. It is the ideal place for a romantic dinner.
This intimate restaurant serves modern cuisine, with both Catalan and international influences.
We recommend octopus carpaccio, baba ganoush with smoked eel and green apple, Iberian pork ‘presa’, beef filled with grilled foie, and all the vegetarian dishes.
This year, Pla received the Certificate of Excellence and only positive reviews, such as: 1) ‘We accidentally came across this place as we were walking around looking for a place to eat and I’m so glad we did.
The good was great and the service on point. I highly recommend. It us fresh, delicious, elegant and you won’t feel like another tourist that needs to be served quickly to turn the table.’
2) ‘Lovely restaurant with a warm, romantic atmosphere. Service was excellent as was the food. Marinated pork fillet and Iberian ham were a great start matched by succulent steak and a shoulder of lamb cooked with liquorice. We shared a fabulous chocolate dessert with flavours of liquorice and wasabi.’
