The Traveling Hungryboy

This Michelin-starred chef from Barcelona opened up a restaurant at Dempsey Hill a couple of years ago. But I never went, in part because some Catalan friends told me that they didn't like it, but also because it was too many pay grades above mine.

He recently opened another shop (16 Stanley Street, 6221-2134) not far from the office though, and it was offering lunch sets at a more reasonable S$38 (US$28). The venue, plating, and service were very high-end. The quality of the ingredients and attention to detail was what you'd expect of a Michelin-starred chef too.

But I was disappointed with how under-seasoned the food was, making it kinda boring. Seriously, everything would've been better with just another pinch of salt and drizzle of olive oil. Well, I'm happy that I finally tried his food, but I'm still not excited about getting Spanish food in Singapore.
