Flower season has been opened on the terrace.

 

Burgers

 

 

We have finetuned the best burgers in the area, which even make Uulits ones pale in comparison. From the moment the patties on the grill are no longer getting frostbitten, burgers become a constant star of our weekend lunches.

Mas que solamente ciudad, Barcelona. And more of the arepas

 

 

Before leaving to the airport, we went to our arepa place again, where Scott had an arepa and I had the best cachapa on the continent - a sweet Venezuelan corn pancake with cheese. So good!

The flight itself was uneventful and we were back home by evening.

Mas que solamente ciudad, Barcelona. So much good food.

 

 

The day started with some wine while watching the sunrise and continued with going to the cafe for cakes and pastries. I had decided that today would be a good day to introduce Scott to all of the Spain, and we went to Poble Espanol, where architecture from all over Spain is represented. Wasn't very impressive. The best part was probably the photo with Olaf.

On the way back, I was starving and we went to the restaurant opposite the hotel, where we had wanted to eat breakfast for several days now. Breakfast proved to be challenging there, because they only opened their joint at noon… In any case, we got the world's best fried plantains and a super megagood burger.

For the dinner, we had a table booked at an Argentinian restaurant - we ate a lot of very good meat :)

Barcelona 2018 & Barcelona 2022

Mas que solamente ciudad, Barcelona. La Paradeta and colorful ceramic

 

 

We had morning coffee at the hotel and walked around in the city after that. Headed to La Paradeta for lunch. It is known to be one of my favourite places in Barcelona and I was already very excited about it. We got the second place in the queue, and by the time the restaurant was opened, there were a good 10-15 people behind us.

We ordered deep fried baby octopus (super good), boiled octopus (well, we actually expected grilled or fried…), grilled tuna (melted in mouth), navajos and wine. It was so good. So. Good.

We walked around the old town some more, drank hot chocolate and shopped for some hand painted ceramics.

Later in the evening, we tried again to get churro hot dogs, but it turned out that they are not available at 19:00, tourists should please come back at 22:00. The tourists then walked to a nearby Mexican restaurant and ate tacos.
