Goig
Goig brings contemporary technique to Catalan classics in a quiet corner of Sants, under chef Abdelaziz Diaz Mayzou who trained for a decade alongside Carles Abellan before opening his own restaurant in 2023.
Background
About Goig
The Story
Goig has been serving modern Catalan cooking in Sants since 2023 under the tagline 'donant de menjar' (giving food). The project is built around chef Abdelaziz Diaz Mayzou, who spent ten years working alongside Michelin-starred chef Carles Abellan before opening his own restaurant in the neighbourhood.
The Cuisine
The kitchen centres on 'cocina catalana modernizada', Catalan cooking updated with contemporary technique, built around market produce and strict seasonality. The carta is organised into Catalan ritual sections (La Vermu, El Chiringuito, El Huerto, La Masia, Los Dulces), with signature dishes including the Tortilla del Goig with Iberian cansalada and seasonal mushrooms, steak tartare with Carasatu bread, and slow-cooked galta with potato parmentier.
The Team
Head chef and owner Abdelaziz Diaz Mayzou leads the kitchen. His ten-year formation under Carles Abellan (Comerç 24, Tapas 24) is the technical base for the restaurant's approach, applied to traditional Catalan recipes such as fricandó, canelón Casa Fonda and esqueixada.
