Bar Raval

Kreuzberg


Forget folklore kitsch. Owned by actor Daniel Brühl (who played the male lead in Good Bye, Lenin!), this tapas bar is fit for the 21st century. The delish homemade Iberian morsels pack comfort and complexity, as do the seasonal specials and hand-picked wines. Great patatas bravas (spicy potatoes) and sobrasada (a pâté-style sausage from Mallorca).
