Fantastic experience:
It is a RESTAURANT with capital letters, the dishes make you cry with emotion. All the wisdom and patience of Anna's hands and those that Pere has transmitted are majestic with the incomparable stir-fries of the Baix Empordà, with a careful presentation and in a product of the highest quality, bought in the vicinity of Palafrugell. They follow Josep Pla's maxim, little-traveled products. The place is very cozy, warm and intimate. The room is masterfully run by Montse, who gives excellent service, let yourself be advised both to pair a wine with the meal or a sweet wine for dessert. Ah! and if you like gin and tonic, don’t miss the ones you prepare!

A very cozy small restaurant, with very good treatment and better food. If it is time, do not stop asking for the candied artichokes and the Fabes.

La Xicra is a small restaurant with excellent food in the middle of Palafrugell. To highlight? All From bread, which is the same as before, to the most expensive garoines or cod with artichokes and meatballs. Apple baked like my mother (acs) Short letter but what they cook do it in a sensational way! The price of the tasting menu is worth the time for a delicate and well-tended kitchen. There are places much cheaper, but more good: few or towards Palafrugell Correct and attentive service
