Reservations are still notoriously hard to get at this 30-seat spot in the trendy El Born district, where Spain’s top pastry chef, Jordi Butrón, sneaks savory accents—olive oil, pepper, even bacon—into his virtuoso all-dessert three- and five-course tasting menus. The chef’s dessert pairings feature sweet wines from Spain’s up-and-coming producers.
We loved: Salty toffee cream with smoked whiskey; extra-virgin olive-oil cake with white peaches and green olives.
