Dinner at ⭐️ Caelis in the Ohla Hotel, Barcelona last Wednesday. Not really a destination restaurant for me but one of the only options for an evening meal that isn’t bounced around on the back of a Deliveroo courier. Restaurants here are currently closed for eat in dinner unless you are staying in the hotel that the restaurant is situated in.
As you know, I love a kitchen counter, and Caelis provides just that. Although quite a deathly quiet experience with just me at the counter and one other two top dining that night, overall it was a pleasant enough meal. I think they just need to pipe a bit of background music in there to liven it up a bit.
It was a longish tasting menu that was served at quite a pace as they require everyone to be finished and out at 10pm. No bad dishes and a couple of excellent ones. One dish of sea cucumber carbonara and another of roasted leek are definitely on the long list for best dishes of the year so far. Desserts did feel like an afterthought though.
