A place worth knowing

Santa Caterina is a food market for assembling a meal as much as admiring the stalls. Fish, seafood, poultry, meat, vegetables and preserved foods give each counter a different speciality, with bakery and eating options also in the mix.

Take a circuit before deciding what to buy. It is a useful stop for discovering ingredients and asking stallholders how to use them, especially if you have a kitchen during your stay.

Mercat de Sant Antoni

Start with an appetite, or a book to look for. Sant Antoni’s market has more than one reason to draw you around the block.

Bar Cañete

Make the table the centre of the evening. A Catalan and Mediterranean stop between the Raval’s galleries and a later night out.

Bar Brutal

A longer conversation over dinner and wine. Leave the museum behind and make Princesa the place where the evening settles.

La Plata

A small stop that need not become a small memory. A few tapas give a Gothic Quarter walk a welcome pause.
