This restaurant is the progeny of the La Ancha Family, a dynasty with restaurants in Madrid and Barcelona. Fismuler, which was founded in the Spanish capital and later housed in the REC Hotel in Barcelona, is a modern eatery. It offers food that is hard to classify but grounded in tradition, camouflaged between a fun time, aesthetics and friendliness. The menu is made up of recognisable dishes with plenty of technique and reflection behind them. It has permanent and seasonal dishes, shareables and memorable flavours based on natural, locally sourced products. You have to try the original hake frittata a la koskera; semicured gilt-head bream with almonds and grapes; beef cutlet with egg and truffle; pré salé lamb with hummus, yoghurt and beet; and cheesecake. As for drinks, you can order wine by the glass, mugs of home-made rebujito and lemonade, infused coffee and following the philosophy of ‘anise+sloe=patxaran’, spirits in which they steep seasonal ingredients. It features a cosmopolitan atmosphere, a mix of locals and outsiders who know that the food there is fantastic. Live music every evening. Fismuler means ‘fish mill’ in German, although the name was inspired by a Viennese restaurant that specialised in schnitzel.
