Bisavis
Great ingredients, loud ego, too much caviar
Bisavis has real talent on the plate: strong product, solid technique, and combinations that often make sense. When they cook, they can land clean, modern flavors with control. The problem is how often the menu leans on assembly—nice things put together, lightly “finished,” but not always truly cooked—so the meal can start to feel curated rather than crafted. Add a heavy fixation on caviar, and what should be an accent turns into a repetitive signature that crowds out the rest.
Price-wise, it’s a serious night, and the room needs to earn that. Sitting at the bar, it didn’t. The chef spent a big part of the meal telling he’s the best in Barcelona, while trading jokes with his girlfriend about other chefs. That kind of self-mythologizing is exhausting—and honestly, it would be healthier (and more convincing) to realize there’s still a long distance between this and being the city’s best. A few oceans of distance.
