Guidebook for Barcelona
Food Scene
very good food, not the most Spanish food in town, but beautiful restaurant and very high quality food (25-35 euro). Recommended dishes: a delicious and creamy omelette, a vegetarian rice, a massive schnitzel with truffle and a egg on the top, and as a dessert the best cheese cake I ever tried (definitely a MUST!!);

beautiful restaurant but during the weekend I recommend you to go there in advance and leave your name at the reception 40 min in advance, then they will call you (20-30 euro). Recommended dishes: Uevos cabreado, pulpo alla gallega (Galician style octopus), bacalao con miel tomate y alli oli (codfish with honey, tomatoes and alli oli sause), pincho con gamba y calamares (skewer with shrimps and calamares);
