As the traditional indication of the Michelin guide says, this is a place which vaut le détour . It 's not in Barcelona, not even in the centre of Sabadell, some fifteen miles away, but in the impersonal western industrial outskirts of this otherwise uninteresting suburban city. However, it 's easily reachable from central Barcelona for it is quite close to one of the stations of the Catalan railway (Sabadell Can Feu). All the food is great and cooked to perfection, from a fish soup that honestly reveals the real taste of the fish it is made of, to a variety of homemade desserts, passing by a wide range of traditional dishes of Catalan cuisine. An acceptable wine comes with the menu. It 's not a fancy place but a rather discreet and unimpressive restaurant. For some reason it reminded me of how the now world famous Can Roca of Girona was many years ago, at its beginnings.

For 17€ you will be offered an extended lunch menu with delicious plates, most of them being classical local dishes. This is reflected in how busy they are, and with a lot of regular customers. I'm looking forward for a new visit but this time for dinner...

It's pleasant to find a restaurant which welcomes you after a hard work day. The environment is simple but the staff is warming and you have the sensation to be at home. I tried a very rich salad as starter and a fish as main course with a white local wine : good quality.
