First of all, the Israeli thing: that is not a gimmick or a sales tool. No, the people who run the business all come from the country of the best fresh fish and the most deliciously prepared vegetables (although I would like to have a piece of meat or fish, De Man and I ate the most delicious vegan and vegetarian dishes in Tel Aviv ever, a cuisine the city is known for) and are on a mission to give the cuisine of their homeland the appreciation and recognition it deserves. Okay, and as a sales trick, they also threw in the term 'Barcelona'. Because more famous to the ears of the average Dutchman (unknown means unloved, blah blah blah). Actually, the latter is not necessary: Bar Fisk brings exactly that Israeli coziness and delicacy to De Pijp that the young owners had in mind. The best places in the place are at the bar, where the cocktail shaker is within easy reach on the left, and the very exciting cooking is being done on the right (vlamdepan-galore), right in front of you.
