Last week I visited Gaudi's lovely city of Barcelona. On the 2nd day of my stay, two friends took me out to a restaurant perched high up that commanded a complete view of the city all the way to the sea. Food was as marvelous as the view. Absolutely incredible mixing of ingredients in turn for fabulous outcome. Like "chicken dumplings with sea cucumbers in chocolate sauce." The friend spiced up the already fabulous meal with his passion about big game hunting. We came back to work close to 5pm, all giddy over good food and wine. Not in the mood for work, we went home. What a Friday.
p.s. The restaurant was La Venta. There is even a bar in a separate building commanding the same view. Address: Plaça Doctor Andreu (93 212 64 55). FGC Avda Tibidabo, then Tramvia Blau.
