Off to Barcelona this weekend. What should I do/ where should I eat?

[Rizzlekicks]

Never been there before and no children in tow. Would love to hear of any suggestions

Oh there is the most wonderful tapas bar... I'll find the name.

Aside from that

Font du majic if its on
Tourist bus
Marina
Wander round El Born district
The food market just off La Ramblas
The fairy bar for a drink (just off La Ramblas next to wax work museum)
Sangrada Familiar if its your kinda thing (I wasnt impressed )

Wil be back with some links in a bit

Tapas is Tapeo, anem de tapes.

It's a bit hard to find, but it's pretty central and really amazing. Get there early or be prepared to wait though.

Yes yes to El Born - it's a really lovely area to wonder around in the evening. Parc Guell is good - amazing views over the city, and an interesting place to visit.
The beach is nice (99% because there's people walking around selling mojitoes) but now may not be the time to go ...
The Picasso Museum is excellent - lovely building, amazing collection.

In El Born there's a Tapas place called Taller de Tapas which a) is good IMO and b) also appears in "Vicki Cristina Barcelona" at one point.

I'm very jealous - Barcelona is one of my favourite cities.

You can also hire these four wheel buggy things to go driving around in, which I haven't done, but looks fun.

It's my favourite city too. Have been 5 times and never tire of it.

Still haven't done cable car or Tibedeo though

Definitely go to the food market that is just off las rambas. There is also an excellent cocktail bar at the top of las ramblas caled Boadas. Look at the Gaudi architecture. We only looked round the outside of the Sagrada Familia though as we thought it was quite expensive to go in.

Did you have a good time?
