Winter in Barcelona

inquiets — Sun, 17 Jan 2010 22:00:57 +0000

I remember summer in the city…
Diving in the pool, sunbathing at the beach, having some “tapas”…
However, it isn’t always like this in Barcelona. It can be cold, too!
So if you are coming in winter, we show you what to pick up from your closet.
And remember… There is always a hot drink waiting for you at any bar!

El pica-pica

inquiets — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 22:00:38 +0000

Maybe summer is finished, but in Barcelona we can still enjoy a lot of sunny days!
And there is no better way to do it than having a delicious “pica-pica” with friends or family…
You don’t know what “fer el pica-pica” means? Really easy!
Imagine olives, spicy potatoes, some iberian products and a cold beer or a vermouth. Yes, that’s it!
And there are a lot of terraces and bars in the city waiting for you.
Actually, I’m feeling hungry … I want some “patates braves” now!

PS. Remember the delicious apperitive we had at la Barceloneta here!

Boqueria’s Market

Where can you find fresh and delicious food in Barcelona? At Mercat de la Boqueria, of course!

It is a very big and wonderful market next to Les Rambles. I love shopping there, because they have everything I like: fresh fruit, fish, meat, vegetables… Everything is so colourful and tasty! Moreover, if you get tired, you can have delicious juices or even have some “tapas” and make a break in one of the bars in the market.

Now you know La Boqueria… Who said that doing the shopping was hard?

Sometimes, it can be very hot in Barcelona. That’s why I love going to Picornell’s swimming-pools. They are in Montjuïc, from where you have a fantastic view of Barcelona.
Just before going to work, I swim for a little while and then, I feel fresh and full of energy all day!

It’s perfect!

Pa amb tomàquet

inquiets — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 22:00:37 +0000

“Pa amb tomàquet” or bread with tomatoe, is a tipical catalan dish. Fresh, natural, and no cook needed.

Ingredients:
- Bread
- Tomato
- Oil
- Salt

How to:
Take the bread, cut the tomato in two halfs and crush it against the bread so that it permeates sliding.
Finally use oil and salt.

So easy and tasty…

If you ask for a sandwich of ham or “butifarra” in Barcelona I’m sure it has this kind of sauce on it.

Where to eat a good sandwich with “pa amb tomàquet”?
Maybe at La Flauta, Quebo!, or Bar Fidel. But any bar could be nice.
