Barcelona, my foodie insights for you!

PART 4 I La Boqueria Market

Hey guys,

my posting series about where to go in Barcelona for foodies and restaurant lovers is continuing. Make sure you did not miss part 1, 2 and 3 by clicking on the numbers you will be forwarded to my other food and restaurant recommendations from my blog.

If you travel to Barcelona you normally heard from this location when searching for places to go. 

I dedicate my part 4 of my food series the unique and great "La Boqueria Market".

The La Boqueria Market is located central, only a side step away from the well known street "la rambla".

The origins from the history of the market go back to the 1200s, it was born as a traveller market - which was at the beginning an open-air market. Developing over the years the market has become one of the must-sees when visiting Barcelona, one of the best markets world wide. 

When you entering the market stalls from the street of "la rambla" you enter a a market for your senses. 

The market stalls itself are close one to another, also enclosed in the market stalls many bars and restaurants where you can directly order your food or a  drink an watch the scene. 

I personally loved the fruit market stalls. A smoothie costs around 1,50 euro. We went there for dinner and tried many things as slices of Empanadas and cheese / ham. We also had a glass of cava at the market. Round about we came to 20 euros all together for two persons, which is really cheap for an European city attraction. 

Make sure you never leave your handbag unattended, but this doesn't stop the fun. 

The market is also offering a food school, where you can book courses for cooking and learning from local chefs and artists. Check the homepage for more information.
