Born-Ribera
Comerç 24
The opening pun (comer, “to eat,” and Carrer Comerç) is fair warning that Carles Abellán is out to play with your mind and palate. At his sleek, red-accented eatery, just around the corner from one of the central plazas in the hopping Born neighborhood, dining is pure entertainment. Trained by the master gamesman-chef Ferran Adrià of El Bulli, Abellán creates dishes that are original and always good. Huevos Kinder (Kinder Eggs), a play on a children’s toy containing surprises, consists of two lightly poached eggs replaced in their shells, and also filled with a cream of potatoes and truffles. His take on a traditional Spanish after-school snack of bread, Maldon sea salt, chocolate, and extra virgin olive oil is a classic.
Insider Tip:
No matter how ravenous you think you are, the seven-tapa tasting menu will more than satisfy most diners. Reserve well in advance.
