Nomad Everyday, Coffee, El Raval

4th December 2018 Leave a Comment

Nomad Coffee Everyday
Arabs dislike dogs. Dislike is probably too mild a word. They think they are dirty and can not abide them in the home. When I was about 5 and after incessantly imploring my father (a Jordanian) about getting a dog. He finally acquiesced. I came home to find a…goat.
“This isn’t a dog, this is a goat,” I said.
“Yes, goats are better, they only eat grass from the highest point on the mountain. Only the cleanest grass.”
By the end of the week, the goat was climbing to the highest point of the sofa and chewing quite happily on it.
My mother (a non-Arab) deemed the experiment to be over and the goat was dispatched.
(A couple of years later, in Cairo, my father gave in and gave me a wild-eyed feral Pekanese.)

Coffee at Nomad Coffee EverydayI tell you this because I find it funny that the Raval, with more Arabs / Moroccans / Algerians per square meter than any other neighborhood, also has the highest concentration of dogs and their droppings, never collected but instead left in situ making the navigation of El Raval perilous.

Halal butcher shop opposite Nomad Coffee EverydayIn spite of this, I love a wander around the Raval. It is a decidedly different neighborhood full of unexpected things – good and bad. And this, across from a halal butcher is where Nomad has it’s Nomad Coffee Everyday shop. There are a few seats, not more than 8 or so but it’s more of a takeaway place with a limited number of bakes.

As you would expect from Nomad roasters, the coffee is very good. The illustration rendered in your cup with microform has sharp edges. And you have the Raval going about its business to watch as you sip your flat white.

The foie sauce pasta @maleducat should be illegal. The foie sauce pasta @maleducat should be illegal. It’s not a plate to share - even with someone you love. 🫣
Of course the tomato tartar with mackerel continues to make me happy.

Out of curiosity I joined the queue @bouillonlinst Out of curiosity I joined the queue @bouillonlinsta - a warehouse of a restaurant with continuous service and small prices. I can see the appeal - the rice pudding with caramel sauce was ace. Three courses with cider 18€!

Something for the weekend @tangana_restaurant beca Something for the weekend @tangana_restaurant because it’s chef led, with good chairs and just the right feeling. Gilda - yes. And the Mitake mushroom but with way more colour then this picture - I hadn’t realized that apricot panna cotta is what’s missing from my life - (not pictured because the best moments often aren’t captured.)

I am going to increasingly direct you outside of t I am going to increasingly direct you outside of the city. To places like @barquet_tarragona - a multi generational fish restaurant with many accolades. Inside it’s a mishmash of nautical references- and an extraordinary selection of things from the sea along with arroces. Even though it’s in Tarragona, I recommend booking in advance.
