23/50.- Barcelona, Barri Gòtic, Los Caracoles

Menu

Not far from the 'Plaça Reial' is the Escudellers Street, in the "Barri Gòtic" (downtown). This street goes from 'La Rambla' to George Orwell Square. In the middle of this street sits one of the most famous restaurants in town: "Los Caracoles". This restaurant has a varied menu offering traditional Catalonian meals. Famous people from all over the world come here on a regular basis. Look for pictures of your idols on the walls of the restaurant. But if you are not famous, do not worry, Ramon and the rest of the staff will treat you like you were a pop star. Lately many fashion clubs and pubs have opened their doors in this traditional street.

The "Barri Gotic" is Barcelona's oldest quarter. Streets in this district are very narrow. And although sunshine hardly gets here, it is one of the city's best places to stroll. In the Middle Ages , this neighborhood used to be encircled by the city walls. Big efforts are being made to prevent the deterioration of this quarter.
