Join us on this tapas brunch in Barcelona to see what the locals enjoy eating in the morning and to take in the city’s morning atmosphere.nnThis fun tapas brunch in Barcelona is designed to show you the essential morning food habits you can find in Spain and nowhere else. You will live a typical Spanish morning food adventure, a full immersion in the traditions and culinary behaviors that the locals have and do. Don’t miss the opportunity to live a real Spanish morning through a fun and colorful must-do food tour, our Tapas Barcelona Brunch!nnEXPERIENCE A REAL CATALAN BREAKFAST DURING OUR TAPAS BRUNCH IN BARCELONAnnMornings in the cities are fascinating because they always show you the most authentic aspect of how its inhabitants live in their hometown. Office workers, delivery men, transporters, freelancers, public employees, all can be found around 10 AM outside their offices and in the cafés for a quick breakfast break! It’s a unique cultural custom which will be explained by our local experts during our Tapas Barcelona Brunch, a moment of the day where everybody suddenly leaves the offices for the corner cafés in town. We have designed this adventure to show you these people and the way locals live and interact in the city through the spectrum of food. As food experts, we will guide you through a succession of typical moments of life starting with the first stop, a most compulsory and traditional morning moment of the day. It’s known as “el almuerzo corto,” which could be also called second breakfast. You’ll visit the most authentic gems in the Gothic and Born hip areas, and you’ll weave in and out of locals doing their shopping as you learn about their daily customs and traditions during our Barcelona Tapas Brunch. By the end of the adventure, you’ll know exactly what it means to do tapas like a local, and why tapas culture in the morning can’t exist outside of Spain (so you’ll have to come back!).nnn## WHAT'S INCLUDED IN OUR TAPAS BARCELONA BRUNCH MORNING FOOD TOURnnA MOST SURPRISING EXPERIENCE, THE TAPAS BARCELONA BRUNCH IS MORE THAN A TOUR!nnFirst, we will begin our Tapas Brunch in Barcelona at exactly the peak time for many cafés, and will start our peregrination with a unique, and most typical, local breakfast. To continue the adventure, we will pass by an old, traditional corner xurreria for some crispy, delicious bites of warm churros. Then, as a third stop, we believe that any good food tour, especially in the morning, must include a local food market! That is why we have chosen one of the most typical and high-quality markets in town, away from the more touristy ones, to continue our adventure and show you some of the best fresh products our region offers. Your tasty bites during our Barcelona Tapas Brunch include jamon iberico (Spanish ham), local cheeses, delicious olives, and our incredible local champagne, cava.To finish up after these three very different experiences, we will end up like locals do, in one of the most popular bodegas in the area. This is a favorite spot among the residents, for what is, again, a must-do local tradition, the vermut appetizer! It’s quite an old tradition which came back into fashion a few years ago and became a hit with Barcelona’s residents.nnn## WHAT TO EXPECT OF THIS BARCELONA TAPAS BRUNCH AND FOOD TOURnn- A most complete and fun Barcelona Tapas Brunch, including the must-eats of our local culture.n- The perfect balance between sweet & salty food for all the family.n- Specialized guide, small group and local areas in which to enjoy the true side of the city.n- Food tour with a good amount of food: about 10-12 tapas servings and drink pairings.n- Abundant information about Spanish food, history, architecture, local culture and lifestyle.n- You may join a small group of travelers during our Barcelona Tapas Brunch.
