Barcelona trip

Was back from our Bacelona trip last Sat. I ate too much seafood, must detox NOW!

Day 1

Too hungry after a afternoon nap, so we decided to go to a restaurant close by. Thought that review from Virtual Tourist was ok, so we give it a try.
My conclusion : small servings, abit pricy, and the paella (middle picture) was too dry and hard.

Day 2
We went to the food market at Las Ramblas.
Look away if you are an animal lover!!!

It's HARE!! Quite alot of stores sells it and it's sold side by side with chickens. Lose my appetite after seeing it.


Next we head to the beach

The water seems sooooo clear and blue. Walk along the beach and in the evening, we enjoy a BIG plate of seafood!


Sam seems sooooo happy and delighted when the food arrive! The grill squid was delicious and fresh, but the prawn wasn't fresh. The BIG plate of seafood cost us about 36 euro and we didn't finish all. Too much even for us!!

Day 3
A visit to Park Guell


A visit to Barcelona is not complete without taking pictures of famous buildings (from left to right) :-
- La Pedrera
- Casa Batllo
- Sagrada Familia


Evening dinner at La Fonda. One of the best recommended restaurant from Virtual Tourist. Dinner starts at 8pm and ends at 11pm. We arrive about 9pm and have to queue about half at hour before we were in the restaurant.

Tried the sangria and the black rice (rice cooked with squid ink). Even though the black rice taste ok, I can't finish it cos it looks abit gross! The squid (bottom right picture) was too delicious that we went back to the restaurant again on Day 4 for lunch to have 2 more plates!!

Day 4
A walk down Las Ramblas again before taking the bus to airport. There's alot of performers on that street and some are quite amusing.


BTW, Sam love his pistachio ice-cream too much and MUST have one more before we leave Barcelona.
