This is the standout of a slew of restaurants hugging the old wall along Carrer del Portal. Within an 18th-century fisher’s stone house, Michelin-starred La Cuina de Can Simón credits its innovative dishes to a dual heritage: the owners' grandparents were a fisherman and an artist. Flavoursome seasonal fusions include meunière sole with Iberian ham, or a seafood-packed bouillabaisse.
