It may sound strange, but a place that does authentic, local home cooking is a rare find in Barcelona. Wheb you go looking for indigenous cuisine, most places out here do a generic Spanish cuisine.
But Can Margarit feels authentic from the first look. The...welcome is great, you'll enter a preserved 'taberna' where time seems to have stopped, lined with wine casks that you can have a tasting from - and then be seated in an area that used to be a patio and is decorated with old tools and trinkets and oozes home-made charm.
The menu offers local classics, the same food a Catalan family might enjoy on a Sunday.
The key here is simplicity. The owners are friendly yet straightforward, the setting simple and the service lightning fast (unless you arrive at peak time).
Try the white beans with garlic, and the signature rabbit roast.
It was a real pleasure to discover this place, give it a chance and I think you won't regret it.
