Fodor's Expert Review Casa Lucio

With fresh ingredients and original dishes flowing from the kitchen, this intimate and expensive dazzler two blocks south of the Mercat de Sant Antoni is well worth tracking down if you're not on a budget. Lucio's wife, chef Maribel, is relentlessly inventive. There's no menu (and no prices on the chalkboard), but Lucio and waiter Patrick will make suggestions. Try the tastum albarole (cured sheep cheese from Umbria) or the pochas negras con morcilla (black beans with black sausage).
