Place to eat: Le Relais de Venise, Barcelona, Spain

About this place:

Don't expect a menu here—the only choice you'll have is rare, medium or well done. Steak frites are the order of the day at Le Relais de Venise, and though they do just this one thing, they do it extremely, unbelievably well. A salad will come your way first, and then a luscious meal of succulent steak and crispy, thin frites. The béarnaise sauce is to-die-for. The best part of Le Relais: your server dishes out only half your steak and half your frites at once, keeping the other half warm on a heated tray nearby—which ensures that the second half of your meal is as amazing as the first. Dinner for two, with a bottle of wine, comes to around €60.
