Josep, who was a butcher by trade, worked in Barcelona’s Poble Espanyol.
Through this job, the Codorniu family gave Josep and his wife Rosa
the opportunity to start a small restaurant in 1969, right next to their
current establishment. It was the kind of place that had little more than
a few big tables for customers to share a meal and conversation. The
couple named their restaurant Chisu, an anagram of both of their surnames:
Xias and Suriol. The establishment eventually became too small
for demand, so they took over the restaurant next door. Over time, the
business passed into the hands of their son Pere and his wife Rosa, who
renovated it and expanded the customer base. Currently, they continue
to run it with the help of their twin sons, Marc and Pere. Together, the
family offers a solid selection of tasty Mediterranean Catalan cuisine.
