In the service sector of the center, a hurt and sometimes distant treatment can be perceived.There is a palpable 'tourist fatigue' in some residents.Trying a few words in Catalan or Spanish usually greatly improves interaction.

Tips for Gastronomy

Dishes You Must Try

Don't leave without trying the 'Bomba de la Barceloneta', 'Pa amb tomàquet', 'Escalivada' and 'Crema Catalana'.

Avoid Tourist Traps

Beware of restaurants with large paella photos in very touristy areas like Las Ramblas. Quality is usually low and prices high.

The 'Menu of the Day' Ritual

From Monday to Friday at lunchtime (1:00 p.m.-4:00 p.m.), look for restaurants that offer 'Menu del Día'. It is the best way to eat well and at a good price.
