Day 22 of our Round The World Trip for Food with Star Alliance, we were in Barcelona, Spain. We started off the day with an amazing Catalan food meal at Can Vilaró before doing some sightseeing, eating legendary Barcelona tapas, and finishing with some of the most famous Antoni Gaudí attractions in Barcelona.

00:32 Catalan Food at Can Vilaró Restaurant - Can Vilaró is an amazing and classic restaurant in Barcelona that specializes in local Catalan food. To begin our meal, I started with a bowl of gazpacho, a cold and refreshing tomato and vegetable soup. One of the main dishes I ordered was cap i pota, a Spanish Catalan dish of trip and other organs in kind of like a stew. Finally, seeing some roasted lamb cheeks, I decided to try a few of those as well. It was a delicious meal with friendly local service. Thanks to culinarybackstreets.com/ for this recommendation! Total price - 23.10 EUR

9:16 Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya - After stopping by the Magic Fountain of Montjuïc for a while, we then continued on up the thill to the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya. If you love art, you’ll enjoy this museum in Barcelona. Price - 12 EUR

12:30 Montjuïc Castle - 5 EUR per person - One of the greatest attractions in Barcelona is the Montjuïc Castle. The castle itself is not incredible, but the views of Barcelona that you get and the perspective you can get of the city is what I think really makes the attraction worth visiting.

14:42 Legendary tapas at Quimet & Quimet - After walking down from the castle, Ying and I stopped off at Quimet & Quimet, a legendary small tapas bar in Barcelona that specializes in tapas made from pickled and canned seafood and ingredients. The owner is an expert at what he does, and you can see the passion and love he has for the tapas he prepared. The best tapa I had at Quimet & Quimet was canned mussels with caviar which came topped over a piece of crispy toast. Total price - 20 EUR

19:26 Casa Milà (La Pedrera) - 20.50 EUR - Some of the most famous attractions in Barcelona are buildings and basilicas designed by Antoni Gaudí. So on this day I decided to visit two of the most famous Antoni Gaudí complexes in a row (the day before we had already visited Sagrada Familia, you can watch that here: goo.gl/HsORjX). Casa Milà was very interesting to see and walk around and learn about Antoni Gaudí.

24:06 Casa Batlló - 22.50 EUR - Next, we walked down the street to Casa Batlló, another well known building re-designed by Antoni Gaudí. It was busier than Casa Milà, but it was also very fascinating to learn about the ideas, thoughts, and designs that went into the construction.

On Day 22 we did quite a bit of sightseeing of attractions in Barcelona, and the highlight of the day for me was the first Catalan food meal at Can Vilaró Restaurant.
