You can't miss it, as it is located under the imposing stone arches of the arcaded and central Plaça Major. The restaurant, with a surprisingly minimalist aesthetic that contrasts with the medieval surroundings, features the kitchen at the back of the dining room and is run by a young team, with chef Alba Hugas at the helm of the gastronomic proposal. Behind the name UNÇA, which alludes to the old-fashioned measure of weight (ounce) used to buy food in bulk, we find a contemporary, authentic and sincere Catalan-based cuisine, evolving around a small à la carte and a set menu reserved for weekday lunchtimes (midday is set menu only, without the à la carte option). Highlights? Try the Ravioli in Brodo, with different textures of prawn inside the ravioli, or its tasty Cod ‘a la llauna’.
