In the heart of the Emporda, this rustic Catalan restaurant is charmingly traditional with its stone walls and beamed ceilings. The menu changes seasonally but expect rice dishes, stews and grilled meats.  

Venture out of the city. In the pre-Pyrenees, just one hour from the bustle of Barcelona, Unplugged has created an off-grid and offline space where you can enjoy the quiet nature that surrounds you without the interruption (or temptation) of your devices. Put your phone in a lockbox when you check in, cosy up in your cabin (there are three to chose from) and enjoy hiking with a paper map to nearby waterfalls, rivers and rock pools or documenting your trip on an instant camera.
