Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: La Barceloneta, Barcelona Spain

Once only fishermen and workers lived here, these days the quarter is hip and trendy. Indifferent to the changes and passage of time, brothers Albert and Xavi continue to run their family business in a side street. Catalonian products such as cava, charcuterie, and high-quality fish preserves are presented for sale in a relaxed atmosphere, where locals chat and enjoy their food at the counter. Sparkling cava is the classless drink of choice here. You enjoy a glass of this delicious bubbly wine accompanied by the original Catalonian dish "pa amb tomaquet" and get in the mood for a great Food Hopping day.

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Barri de La Ribera, calle de Montcada, 08003 Barcelona Spain

Marc expertly checks the quality of the freshly roasted hazelnuts, whose fragrance wafts enticingly through the shop. He studied science before finding his true destiny and passion: as a roasting master in this historic treasure chest. Nibbling on a crunchy taster, you inhale the atmosphere where spices are weighed and dried fruits mixed, and where local and exotic delicacies have been sold for more than 160 years. Further on our discovery of this picturesque quarter, we have a special glimpse into a baroque palace with a modern use, and stroll through Barcelona's oldest closed market hall, which is still frequented daily by the locals, and have a taste of fresh jamon.

We stroll from the culinary present to an art nouveau world heritage site, and marvel at the floral decorated columns of this hidden gem from the outside. Some small winding alley closeby, we relish traditional Patatas Bravas and Sangria with a modern twist at a charming place. Further on the way, taste local cold cuts and cheese in a former tannery warehouse, where Rolling Stones legend Ron Wood used to stop for a bite.
