Quimet Quimet

This is a great tapas bar with the finest selection of cheeses in Barcelona. Built at the turn of the 20th century, the tavern in the Poble Sec sector is run by the fifth generation of Quimets, and their wine cellar is one of the best stocked of any tapas bar. If you're not watching the calories and cholesterol, try the prized four quesos (cheeses) on the same plate: Nevat (a tangy goat's cheese), cabrales (an intense Spanish blue cheese), zamorano (a hardy, nutty sheep's milk cheese), and torta del Casar (a soft, creamy farm cheese). Or chance the tou dels tillers, a cheese stuffed with trout roe and truffles. Other delights include mejillones con confit de tomate y caviar (mussels with tomato confit and caviar), navajas (razor clams), and even esturión (sturgeon).
