Eatery of the week - O Velho Eurico, Lisbon
When a once beloved tasca was about to close its doors, young chef Zé Paulo Rocha came to the rescue and bought O Velho Eurico back to life. Serving excellent versions of classic Portuguese grubs, Rocha and his team pioneer the new Portuguese kitchen.
Located on the eastern hills of Lisbon and not yet known to many of the city guides, O Velho Eurico is a must-visit.
What to order?
Enjoy the arroz de pato, bacalhau à Brás, and their drool worthy juicy lamb croquettes, this spot has a queue before it opens.

EATERY OF THE WEEK - Bar Brutal, Barcelona
Bar Brutal is a game-changing wine bar that kick-started the city’s heady natural wine scene. The driving force behind Brutal were Max and Stefano Colombo, two brothers from Italy’s Veneto region – Max is a chef, Stefano is a sommelier – who recognised an opportunity to introduce Barcelona to the pleasures of organically farmed, zero-additive wines from around the world...
What to order?
Go for the bread basket that comes with jamón, the baba ghanoush, and sea bass paired with your favourite natural wine.

EATERY OF THE WEEK - CHICHA BERLIN, BERLIN
Bustling, loud, rustic, and just a touch “shabby”... Chicha has succeeded in creating an informal authentically South American atmosphere to complement its modern Peruvian cooking. Quality fresh products are ambitiously blended to a mouthwatering effect.
What to order? The ceviche of meagre fish and Thüringer Duroc belly of pork with smoked banana served with their famous Pisco Sour.
