Can Recasens
Can Recasens is a long-standing Catalan spot in Poblenou built around charcuterie platters and local wine, served in a chic, brick-lined room inside a Modernist building.

Background
About Can Recasens
The Story
Can Recasens is a long-standing spot in Poblenou, the old-industrial-turned-residential neighbourhood in Barcelona's Sant Martí district. It sits in a chic, brick-lined space inside a Modernist building and is open mainly for dinner.
The Cuisine
The kitchen is Catalan and built around charcuterie platters and cheese boards paired with local wine. That means cured meats and sharing plates meant to be grazed over slowly, the kind of food that pairs naturally with a glass of something regional. Coffee and dessert are on offer too.
The Team
The focus here is on charcuterie and shareable platters rather than a long, formal menu. It's the kind of format built for lingering at the table with a few plates between you.
