SPANISH BRUNCH at BEST FOOD MARKET in Spain! La Boqueria Market in Barcelona Spain

I went to one of the world's best market in Barcelona, Mercado de La Boqueria. This popular food market sells some of the freshest fruit, vegetables, and seafood. One of the food vendors you must try is Quim, and this place serves great Gazpacho and green peppers. After the market, I went to go tour one of the most breathtaking cathedrals and then ate some hot chocolate with churros.

@@BiPolarBear128 Ok after see the quantity of the dish I can say that is a little bit expensive, but in La Rambla is normal, I am local not from Barcelona but from a near city and i ate many times in the Ramblas , I pay the "tourist price" I know but if the food is good I dont mind ( if is for one time of course) I go to this places one or two times ina year, is la Rambla!! tourists traps hehe but is worst go to one place and eat garbage and as many times happend , Barcelona have a looot of different restaurants goods bads, cheaps ,expensives,there are restaurants where for 12 euros you can eat 2 decent plates, desert and vine,included (menú del dia). I know many places. ( after 40 years own restaurants now I dont have interest in defend this prices (I am retired)i hate when the owners of restaurants or shops abuse with this prices because as we say this is (pan para hoy hambre para mañana)bread for today hunger for tomorrow. Next time you must see the price list ,and pay only the price of the list,then if after see the price you order this food is your fault ;-)

[@Jos4n-]

I'm from Barcelona and I don't recommend any tourist to go to eat in La Boqueria. It's a good place to buy fresh seafood, but the restaurants are too expensive in relation to what they serve... 20€ for a dish of 10 squids and 2 eggs it's ridiculous and literaly a tourust trap

[@ChurMcDevitt]

Jos4n where do you recommend going?

[@TheLittledikkins]

I kind of wondered if it hadn't gone the way of Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco when I saw that sign telling tourists to go home.

[@ricardopontes7177]

This is "La Boqueria", everything is more expensive, but top notch quality...

Really? Its not something you eat every week, but it seems worth the price.

[@lifeonthebeelist3782]

I wasn't too sure about the combination until I saw the pepper chaser at the end! Yum!! 👍😋😍🍜

[@elrey8876]

I found the food in Barcelona to be not the best. That paella Mikey had didn't look legit - a bit wet, with sour cream or something, and not many ingredients. The squid and egg wasn't very appealing either.

[@HarunaMaurer]

Never eat in the touristic area in Barcelona (especially in La Boqueria), hella expensive and bad quality. I'm saying this as a Spaniard. Try to look for places where the local people eat, bc I assure you that no one who lives in Barcelona goes out to eat in La Boqueria.

Blue collar Gold pockets wow just stfu

[@gamesonthichai5243]

Not gonna lie the food is kind of bland to me just my opinion

[@Biittle]

Most Scandinavian food is pretty bland, but seasonal celebratory dishes are very delicious. If you want most traditional foods you'd probably do best coming in close to christmas when it's served. I'm not certain for the other countries, but for Norway I'd recommend komle/raspeballe which comes in a lot of different local variants, christmas ribs, fårikål, (for the brave) smalahove, and if it has good sides lutefisk is at least worth the experience. Other than that visiting fish markets is probably a good bet. We have a lot of nice clean seafood and meat.
