Wining and Dining Barcelona

I won't blabber too much. I shall let the vittles and potables speak for themselves. 



All of the previous are from an indoor market in Los Rambles. There were also skinned pigs' heads, but I was too disturbed to take a picture. They seemed to be gazing at me reproachfully, although, of course, they shouldn't have been, at least not at me. I would not harm one hair on your formerly hairy  chinny chin chins, I wanted to protest. 


Longingly gazing through the window of a patisserie

Oh, gelateria, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways: Hazelnut. Catalan Creme. Tiramisu

And if you thought I would leave Spain without a taste of sangria, you are very much mistaken.

I did go in November, and it was incredible and warm (at least, for November). And I think it is indeed dragon fruit, although as my Spanish is nonexistant, I was unsure at the time!

What is catalan cahdafoihd; (I forgot the second word)? and also, was sangria good or what? I am really curious about it.

it's similar to a creme brulee, except, in the case of gelato, without the flamed crust. It is delicious, with a hint of citrus.
and sangria was...good! One bar we had it at made it too sweet, but the Fairy Bar made it just right.
