New in Town: Salitre Barcelona

Salitre is the name of a chemical used in explosives, fertilizers and food preservatives. But in Barcelona, it also refers to a recently opened restaurant in Poblenou run by Bruno Morales with chefs Daniel Armenteros and Sergio Morales who bring dynamic touches to traditional dishes. That might come off as trite yet Salitre is anything but. Take, for example, a typical seafood salpicón infused with Bloody Mary or a standard burger made with picanha (a popular cut of beef in Brazil). Raw food, finger food, individual plates, shared plates — and don’t forget the drinks! Alhambra beer is always on tap, but Salitre also boasts a dynamite cocktail menu. Don’t forget to take advantage of their adorable patio before the temperatures drop!

Salitre Barcelona, Carrer de Llull 169. **Permanently closed**
