A Summer Grilling

55% People. 30% Shoping. 15% Parties. 0% Spell Check. Judging by the typo-ridden street banners for The Brandery, Bread & Butter may have taken not only most of the brands but also most of the German efficiency and professionalism with them.

One thing that the Berliners didn't take with them, however, is Sifó, whose BBQs were sure-fire hits at every B&B edition, just like their stands at Primavera Sound and their temporary restaurant for Teatre Grec proved to be definite crowd-pleasers last summer.

The restaurant at Grec is now back and this year opens not only on nights of performances, but lets you enjoy the flame-grilled delights every night until August 2. With spectacular views and a magical setting in the gardens of Montjuïc, it's one summer treat that you shouldn't deny yourself.

Montjuïc, incidentally, is also where The Brandery takes place next week. Shoping-shopping, water under the bridge; we wish them the best of luck. We just hope that their proofreader is now done mourning Jacko and starts paying more attention. After all, it'd be so easy turning the "Post Fashion Circus" into a "Post Fashion" circus.

Sifó @ Grec - until August 2
Teatre Grec, Passeig de Santa Madrona 36, Montjuïc - 663 762 035
Average price EUR 30-40
The Brandery Post Fashion Circus - July 7-9

ALSO IN EAT & DRINK

  • Working It

    While it used to be nearly impossible to locate a decent eatery open in high summer, this year most restaurants have cut short their holiday breaks. And this recent opening hardly closes at all.

  • Drinking Like Fish

    At a first glance, it looks like yet another formula-driven place - a formula that includes an interior by Lazaro Rosa-Violán, sushi and, sure enough, cocktails - but, as the name allures to, the fish is what really does set it apart.

  • Photos: Bar Velódromo re-opening

    Carles Abellán and Jordi Hereu, the mayor, re-opened the legendary place in front of an invited audience, of which many appeared to be regulars from the early stages of the bar that opened for the first time back in 1933.

  • Waiting for Veló

    The place has been restored to its original glory by Moritz and now opens with super chef Carles Abellán overseeing the kitchen with classic Catalan bistro dishes. The original art deco feel has been revived, maintaining many of the original design elements.

  • Open For Business

    These places open early for breakfast, stay open through lunch (or brunch on weekends) and on to dinner and, for some, cocktails.
