L'espineta

Having passed a really hard year, I have just spent a few relaxing days with my mother in Calafell, at the Meridian Ra Beach Hotel and Spa . When our friend Marconi Lunasanta knew I was going to this place, he quickly said we had to go to L'Espineta, the restaurant belonging to the Barral's family.

It's a very small sailors tavern (in august you'd better book your table the day before), where you can taste lovely fishes and seafood. The paella and the soggy rice are absolutely delicious. We also had razor-sells, cockles, orelluts (like baby squid), mussels made L'Espineta way. Everything was unforgettable.

The tavern is decorated with some old photographs and saling tools, which make the place lovely warm. The whole meal for two, was around 60 €, but we had a bottle of white wine (Raimat Chardonnay, a Costers del Segre) and we definitely ate too much. Please, don't miss it if you pass around.
