Dining

Acontraluz

Eclectic, EUR12 to EUR25, Tres Torres. This stylish covered terrace in the leafy upper-Barcelona neighborhood of Tres Torres has a strenuously varied menu ranging from game in season, such as rable de liebre (stewed hare) with chutney, to the more northern pochas con almejas (beans with clams). All dishes are prepared with care and flair, and the lunch menu is a bargain.  Address: Milanesat 19, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain Phone: 93/203-0658

El Asador de Aranda

Spanish, EUR18 to EUR25, Tibidabo. Designed by Art Nouveau architect Rubió i Bellver, this immense palace 1,600 feet above the Avenida Tibidabo metro station is a hike -- but worth remembering if you're in upper Barcelona. The kitchen specializes in cordero lechal (roast lamb); try pimientos de piquillo (hot, spicy peppers) on the side. The dining room has a terra-cotta floor and a full complement of Art Nouveau ornamentation ranging from intricately carved wood trimmings to stained-glass partitions, acid-engraved glass, and Moorish archways. AE, DC, MC, V. Closed Holy Week and Sun. in Aug. No dinner Sun.  Address: Av. del Tibidabo 31, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain
