And then the onwer's son, Albert Oltra attended culinary school. He hit the time-travel button and Can Piqué fastforwarded 50 years or so. It landed in Catalan contemporary cooking; he kept the roots the canneloni and the charcoal grilled meats are still there, and so are most of the usual customers), but added new dishes: Venere rice with porcini, cobina with romesco sauce, confit de pancetta, 70ºC kid leg.

It has some views of the Besos valley urban sprawl and highways) but still it feels aloft and calm. They have two rooms: in the larger, they can have wedding receptions disclaimer: eight yeras ago almost to the day, I had mine there) and other parties. Phoning for a reservation is a good idea.
