Overview
This three-hour tour is designed for real foodies. You will have the chance to visit three different neighbourhoods as you discover the best tapas and local products, paired with traditional alcoholic drinks from Catalonia and Spain. You will get to know four authentic restaurants you would never have discovered on your own, each of which with a different atmosphere and new flavours to offer in family-run businesses.
What you will be doing
The quintessential Catalan tapa. White bread rubbed with tomato and drizzled in oil and salt. A perfect accompaniment to the rest of your tapas
The fried potatoes of Spain. Small fried cubes of potato served with two sauces:alioli (a garlic mayonnaise) and a spicy tomato sauce
Fried squid unique to Spain. They are small and you will get a plate full of them
These anchovies are not normally the very salty type you may be used to. They are served in vinegar with parsley and garlic
Not the healthiest of salads. It is a heavy dish composed of potatoes, peas, hard-boiled eggs and other vegetables, covered with mayonnaise
Croquettes are often made with ham, fish, chicken or spinach. They are made of a kind of béchamel sauce, breaded and fried
All tapas are accompanied by a good beer, one of the great Spanish wines or your favourite soft drink. Having a vermouth in Barcelona or going for tapas is not just eating, it is a good time of conversation among friends while enjoying the different flavours of each tapa in a bar with lots of people eating and enjoying a terrace if the weather is good.
