Bistrot 106, Barcelona

This restaurant is reminiscent of typical riverside bistrots in Paris. The service is fast and attentive, and the ambience is intimate with soft lighting and marble tables, which give the place an elegant touch. French stews, soups (try the Onion Soup au Gratin, for example), foie gras, oysters, salads, risotto with parmesan, and other fantastic dishes are all on a menu full of original surprises, such as crepe suzette. The wine selection is mostly top-quality French vintage and is reasonably priced.
