    We had a nice meal here, sat at the counter, with lots of small plates of food placed in front of us. You then pick at the ones you like. We selected nine plates between us, and a couple of beers, for 15 euros each

    Located on the very busy Passeig de Gràcia, sitting on the terrace isn't really a relaxing experience - it IS perfect for people-watching though - nor is sittin inside for that matter. Nonetheless the tapas are VERY good and since you'll be walking past here anyway to go see Gaudí's houses, Battló and La Pedrera", you might as well sit down here and have a typically Spanish lunch. Also the touristy part has its advantages : we met a crazy bunch of Japanese women who were positively hilarious!!

    How is it done? Well the Spanish count the number of people in the group, multiply it by two and that 'll give them the number of tapas to order ... generally this amount is about right ... you might have to order one or two extra ones, that depends a little on your appetite.

    It might be a little more expensive than average, bear in mind that "average" is 7 or 8 euros for a typical lunch menu.

    Basic ingredients of a tapa-table are the patatas bravas (fried potato chunks with a sauce on top that's a little spicy) and of course NEVER forget to order the "bread with tomato" or "Pan Tomaquet" which is typically Catalan : bread with olive oil, tomato and garlic .... the basic ingredient of every Catalan meal!!

  • You will lose your mind over the selection of tapas. Just point to whatever looks good and pretty soon you plate will be filled with a variety of fried fish, squid, chorizo, you name it!! Good idea for lunch, because you don't have to sit down and be waited on.

    Tapa Tapa: Order With Confidence!

  • By SusanJH on March 12, 2004

  • Tapa Tapa was the first restaurant I walked into in Barcelona. I was a bit indimidated as I didn't realize how many people do not speak English and I left. The next day, armed with more confidence and determined to try the restaurant I heard so much about, I sat right at the tapa bar and started pointing to what I wanted. Inserting many por favor and gracias as needed. It's a great place for people watching and for eating on your own.

    The shrimp was yummy. The tuna wrapped in a pastry was tender and tasty. I also really enjoyed the ham and cheese croquettes. Excellent creme brulee and choc croissants!

    They have excellent tapas here. Baby fish are just great, so are calamari, dumplings with tuna and salad with crab meat. And before trying any tapas you have to eat pan catalan which is toasted bread with tomato, garlic and olive oil.
