In the first part of this article I have talked about the famous market of
Barcelona and two unmissable tapas bars. This time I am going to mention a few
restaurants which I really enjoyed visiting in the capitol of Catalonia.
The restaurant opens at 19:30 - we have arrived without a
reservation at 19:35 and the place was already full, literally full. You have a
line of chairs in the bar area where you can eat as well and behind all the
chairs there were another line of people waiting. Luckily they have a small
private room as well with a few tables and after about 30 minutes waiting we
could have a seat inner. But that half an hour waiting time was not boring at
all cause it's just amazing to see how effortlessly they handling the army of
gests in that small open kitchen.
This is one of the most popular dining places in Barcelona
so expect some delay at your arrival or just simply reserve a table for
yourself. Although if I ever get back there again, I definitely won't reserve a
table for myself cause this is just how good the atmosphere there, worth to
wait and time is just running there.
We had no menu, we just told to our waiter to get us whatever
he likes the most. We had about 7-8 different tapas and a Catalan Crème Brûlée in
the end, all food has been shared.
You can find this little "bar" front of the SantaMaria del Mar temple which is also highly recommended to visit so after you
have had your time inner, you will be just a few steps away from this brilliant
place.They have a huge list of wines and also a few tapas alongside as well.
On our way to the temple we were kind of lost in the dark labyrinths
of Barcelona and we just accidently found the best ice cream I have ever had,
the place called Toscana. Now, I have tried to find the place on Google maps
but and I have found another place which is called La Cremería Toscana,
that's not the one! The one I am talking about is somewhere near the temple
hiding in the shadows of the narrow streets. If you are adventurous or simply a
fan of dark and scary corners then you should give a try to find the place, if
you succeeded please throw me a mail!
Fancy some Choco? Then this is the place you want to visit.
Not much to say about it really, have a look at the photos.
One of the best restaurants I have ever been to, very high quality, fast
service, quiet, peaceful atmosphere, affordable prices, large variety of
choices and lovely staff. This is the place I have enjoyed the most in
Barcelona. I won't convince you to visit the place, but hopefully the photos
will.
