Traditional Catalan classics — wine arrives in a porró

Cargols amb romesco — snails with romesco sauce Fricandó with bolets Chipirones with Santa Pau beans and Perol sausage Esqueixada de bacallà; cap i pota; gambitas de cristal with fried egg

Plaça de Sant Just — one of the Gothic Quarter's quieter medieval squares; the candlelit terrace is the draw
