ABaC is Barcelona fine dining in a sleek, hotel-polished register, with Jordi Cruz using the tasting-menu format to mix precision, luxury and a touch of youthful provocation. The cooking is contemporary and technically assured, but its best moments are not just about cleverness; they come when Catalan ingredients, clean sauces and sharp textures are allowed to breathe. The setting is urbane and composed, making it a restaurant for diners who want Barcelona's creative energy filtered through a more private, high-gloss experience.
