In this post, we changed our focus and we are going to share more secrets about where to eat international cuisine in Barcelona.
Of course, we love Paella, tapas and traditional Spanish dishes however sometimes we just feel like we want to try something new.
We especially look for Asian cuisine and South American delicatessen as we just love this kind of food. I would even say that we love Japanese food or any kind of fusion with Japanese cuisine. When we visited Japan we quickly realized that Japanese food is amazingly fresh, delicious and you can eat a lot of it.
