Pinches Tacos

By @raquelpastel83

Lively counter energy with al pastor that turns heads and a lineup of classics. Sirloin and suadero come juicy with a light char, and there is always a good stew if you want a spoon and tortilla moment. Avocado shows up often for that creamy finish. It stays busy because the flavor is big and consistent. Night bites are especially fun.

Address: C. Jose Rosas Moreno 87, San Rafael, Cuauhtémoc, 06470 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico

Tips
Late night is great here. Order pastor first, then a second round to explore. Drink tepache or a cold horchata between spicy salsas.

Restaurant Can Culleretes

Barcelona’s oldest restaurant in preservation. Portrait-lined rooms have carried centuries of weddings, baptisms, and long Sunday lunches. This isn’t a place for innovation; it’s where you order canelons and suquet and enjoy. A survivor run by people who care about the past, where tradition takes the lead.

In the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, Los Caracoles opened in 1835, born of the Bofarull family’s kitchen. Here, the signature dish of snails (hence the name) became legendary. This place is more than a restaurant: a chapter of Barcelona’s story in taste and time.

Cafè del Centre
