We specialize in finding small-batch producers who share our philosophy. Our board typically includes hand-carved 36-month aged Jamón Ibérico de Bellota, raw-milk goat cheese from the Pyrenees, and home-made pickles. Served with traditional 'pa de vidre' rubbed with ripe tomatoes. It's the ultimate wine companion.
Tips from diners
An absolute mandatory order for the table. The quality of the ham is excellent. Ask the staff for a wine pairing for each cheese — they are true experts.
We source the best local lamb and slow-roast it for 12 hours with wild Mediterranean herbs. Served over a base of roasted seasonal root vegetables and its own concentrated juices. It's a deep, savory, and honest dish that celebrates the quality of the product.
Tips from diners
The lamb is remarkably juicy. Not too much seasoning, which lets the meat flavor shine. Perfectly paired with a glass of robust natural red from the Priorat.
A rich, silky ganache made from 70% dark cocoa and organic cream. It's finished with a generous drizzle of spicy extra virgin olive oil and a few flakes of Maldon sea salt. A refined study in contrast and chemical purity.
Tips from diners
The olive oil quality really makes this dish. It's hardly sweet at all, but incredibly satisfying. A must-try with a glass of their sweet natural wine.
A tribute to traditional Catalan mountain cooking. Crushed cabbage and potatoes with local garlic, finished with a generous portion of high-quality local bacon that has been grilled until perfectly crispy. Heart-warming and deeply authentic.
Tips from diners
The best Trinxat in the city. The flavor of the cabbage is remarkably deep. A great, satisfying dish even if you're shared it with a friend.
We source different fish every morning based on what's best. Thinly sliced and seasoned simply with premium cold-pressed olive oil, a dash of lemon zest, and wild herbs. It's a fresh, bright, and high-impact appetizer.
Tips from diners
The fish quality is obviously very high. Simple but perfectly executed. Great with any of their dry, mineral-forward white wines.
Monocrom is a sanctuary for wine lovers. Located in a sophisticated space in the upscale Sant Gervasi neighborhood, it focus on 'vins nus' (naked wines) from small, independent biodynamic producers. The kitchen mirrors this philosophy, serving honest Catalan bistro dishes that highlight the purity of local products. It's a favorite for its intimate atmosphere and a wine list that is frequently cited as one of the best in the city.
The wine list is the star here. Don't be afraid to ask for something 'challenging' or 'new' — the staff live and breathe natural wine and will give you a full education with every glass.
The square outside is one of the most beautiful and quiet spots in Sant Gervasi. Try to get a table on the terrace if the weather is good. It's a very local, sophisticated vibe.
