Restaurante Origens, L'Escala, Catalonia


Offering a generous three-course menu for 25 euros, including wine and water, Restaurante Origens serves traditional Catalan and Spanish fare made from very fresh ingredients.  To start, the anchovies on tomato bread is exceptional, while the ham and melon is also a good choice. Among the main courses, the fideuà is flavoursome and filling. Although Origens' decor is a bit dated, there is a sea view, the air con is effective and the service is smooth, particularly early evening which can be quiet. And you might get to sample some delicious caviar as an appetiser. 8/10
