The Passeig del Born's all-day Catalan dining room: a revived classic where market cooking — grilled artichokes in season, whole fish, slow oxtail — meets a corner terrace with the promenade's best people-watching. It holds the line between the Born's tourist tide and its actual kitchen traditions better than almost any of its neighbours, which is why locals still book it.
