MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

Bib Gourmand: good quality, good value cooking

This restaurant takes its name from the old Pyrenean tradition of log rafts, used to transport timber by river (there’s a exhibition dedicated to this traditional craft next to the railway station where the historic Tren dels Llacs also makes a stop). We were pleasantly surprised to find this restaurant, which embraces tradition from a more contemporary perspective, in so doing showcasing the so-called “Pallaresa nouvelle cuisine” (noteworthy dishes include the magnum of organic chicken with kimchi mayonnaise and tonkatsu, and the trout belly served with its own roe). This simple yet pleasant eatery, with an open kitchen behind the bar, is run by a friendly duo of chefs, Claudia and Jaime, who showcase their technical yet fresh and fun cuisine, which they skilfully change according to the availability of local, seasonal ingredients. We recommend eating at the high tables by the kitchen counter so that you can watch the two chefs in full flow!
