Founded in 1786, this is considered the oldest restaurant in Catalonia. The stories these walls could tell are as endless as they are epic, but we’ll only regale one which pertains to the origin of its name. The waiter, who was forever run off his feet, would constantly tell the cleaning ladies: “girls, girls... more spoons!” (culleretes). It wasn’t until the end of the 19th century that it began to function as a restaurant (rather than a patisserie), thanks to the great-grandfather of the Agut Manubens family. Since then, this fifth generation family has been serving almost exactly the same traditional Catalan recipes that their ancestors cooked over a century ago. Its modernist decoration is priceless, complemented by paintings and photographs of the celebrities who’ve visited over the years.
