LET YOUR BELLY LEAD YOU TO BARCELONA
Barcelona, well known for its football, architecture, shopping, ‘Las Ramblas’ and its
long beaches. It is a city with a lot of history, good weather, with an excellent taste
for art and music, and most importantly; A CITY WITH GOOD FOOD. In this article,
BREWED will give you some food tips you should definitely try when visiting the city!
If you hadn’t had enough yet, there’s
a COVERED MARKET called ‘Mercat
de la Boqueria’ along Las Ramblas.
‘Mercat de la Boqueria’ is opened
all days of the week except on
Sundays. At this market, you can
find very fresh fruits, veggies, fish,
meat and cheeses. This is one of
the most colorful markets you will
see in Barcelona.
Do you want to start your day off right? Walking
down Las Ramblas towards the harbor, you will
find ‘BRUNCH AND CAKE’. It is the best place to
have breakfast or lunch! The menu varies from
salads to smoothie bowls, eggs, bagels, juices,
and cakes. Not only does the food taste amazing,
but the way the plates are made up makes it even
better!
What you absolutely cannot miss on your trip is tapas bar ‘Orio’. It is situated in Barrio
Gotico, the center of the old city Barcelona. It is a traditional Spanish restaurant which
serves VERY TASTY TAPAS and dishes. It is a very nice place where you can taste the
Spanish kitchen at its best.
Next to Las Ramblas you can find a cozy
restaurant named ‘Luzia’. It has a nice vibe
and they have AN OPEN KITCHEN. They
serve dishes varying from tapas, pasta,
sandwiches, and pizza. And for dessert,
they have the most amazing home-made
lemon pie!
Going further into the center you will find
restaurant ‘El Cercle’. It is situated at Carrer
dels Arcs. To find this restaurant you need
to enter the Museum that is underneath
first, and then follow the stairs. ‘El Cercle’ is
a cozy restaurant with a beautiful terrace.
They serve two different menus here; a
menu with MEDITERRANEAN DISHES and
a menu with Asian dishes. The food is
excellent, but the sushi is even better. It is
a very nice place to have a fine meal and to
enjoy the sight of the streets of Barcelona.

Near the harbor, there is a BEACH
BURGER CAFÉ called ‘Makamaka’.
Their home-made burgers are
irresistible, just like the cocktails
they serve. A cool thing about
‘Makamaka’ is that they have a
wall where customers can write
their comments or a message on a
wooden fork or spoon and put it on
the wall. ‘Makamaka’ is a cozy café
and has a relaxed vibe, which makes
it the perfect place for an afternoon
bite or drink!
