No matter where you choose to rent a villa in Barcelona<\/a>, you\u2019ll be within walking distance of a great tapas restaurant! The city has plenty of great places that serve up small plates of classic Spanish dishes such as patatas bravas, calamares, and croquetas. However there is one particular location in Barcelona that is especially known for its tapas offerings: the neighbourhood of El Born in Ciutat Vella (the old city). Join us as we take a look at some of the highlights of an El Born tapas crawl!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Stop 1: Tapeo<\/strong><\/p>\n

Begin your El Born tapas crawl at Tapeo<\/a>. Run by husband-and-wife team Daniel Rueda and Natalia Ferran, the menu features modern, creative tapas that you won\u2019t find anywhere else, and it\u2019s the perfect way to begin your evening. How about meatballs with cuttlefish, wasabi-topped salmon, or a burger with mushroom mayo?<\/p>\n

Stop 2: El Xampanyet<\/strong><\/p>\n

El Xampanyet<\/a> should be your second stop on your El Born tapas crawl for two reasons: first, it\u2019s right across the road from Tapeo, and second this traditional watering hole is extremely popular and it gets busy, so arriving early is essential. Authenticity is key here and you won\u2019t find any \u2018crazy\u2019 menu items, just good old-fashioned Spanish tortillas and plenty of chorizo. While the tapas is delicious, many people flock here for the homemade cava!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Stop 3: Cal Pep<\/strong><\/p>\n

A short walk through El Born will bring you to\u00a0Cal Pep,\u00a0<\/a>a Mediterranean-style restaurant famous for its fresh seafood offerings. With menu items changing depending on the \u2018catch of the day\u2019, there\u2019s always something different to sample here, and there\u2019s usually more than 70 dishes available, including tapas, meats, fish, vegetables, soups, and salads.<\/p>\n

Stop 4: Ten\u2019s Tapas OR Vinya del Senyor<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now it\u2019s time to make a decision: Either head toward Barcelona Zoo<\/a> and you can visit Ten\u2019s Tapas<\/a>, run by renowned chef Jordi Cruz, or head toward Port Vell and stop in at Vinya del Senyor,<\/a>\u00a0a wine-themed tapas restaurant that commands spectacular views of the Basilica de Santa Maria del Mar<\/a> from the outdoor patio. If you enjoy people-watching, then this is a true Barcelona hotspot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
