Fodor's "Albert Raurich has opened an Asian fusion restaurant with a Spanish-Mediterranean touch—and garnered a Michelin star for it." Full review
Travel + Leisure "At star power of El Bulli’s former chef de cuisine Albert Raurich's latest opening, the setup is half the fun: you enter a traditional tapas bar (it’s actually new) in the Raval quarter." Full review
