this is a very soft and tasteless beer, originary from Lebanon. I do not recommend it.

This is a good quality/price ratio place. You can eat a very complete and tasty sample menu. 14 dishes per 25 swiss francs (aprox. 17 eur) per person + drinks. Worth to taste it if you like lebannon cuisine. Do not ask for tea with mint, they won't understand you! (they only provide tea or mint)

Semonair

Semon air

Aeroport de Barcelona T1

This place belongs to the family of my good friend Salvador Sostres. Unfortunately it is closed early in the morning and I was unable to taste it, but I must say that I have been in Semon in Barcelona and the Salmon Nature is a fully OUTSTANDING product. Worth to taste it!
In addition they charge a ridiculous price for wines. Around 18 EUR for Pesquera Crianza, which costs 16 eur in a shop.
Nevertheless, I am not sure if they offer the same quality/price ratio at the airport.

This is a cheap restaurant, that offers a fixed price menu for 19,9 EUR including house-wine. The presentation is really good but behind this nice presentation there is a simple meal.

This is a pleasant to drink wine that costs around 8 EUR. I paid 20 EUR at dos palillos. Nice body and taste. Worth to taste it, although for this same price I prefer Elias Mora.

This is the second post devoted to this place. The restaurant is quite small but it has a nice show: you will see most of the cooking process.

This is an outstanding restaurant. High quality level, outstanding sample menu. In addition, the owner Albert Raurich is extremely kind and friendly.
Are you ready for the visual journey? the cost of the sample menu is 65 EUR (IVA included). Most of the dishes are for sharing (two people). Worth to visit.

You can ask for a fork, but it is supposed that you will eat with sticks.
apetizer. Surprising texture and taste!
