  • THE CITY

    pasotraspaso

    Like many other cities on the Mediterranean, Barcelona was founded by the Romans. The original settlement,called Barcino, was a small port located on the same spotas todays cathedral. The town was overshadowed byTarragona, the capital of the province. Both the Visigothsand the Moors invaded Barcelona, however, their inuencewas not as important to the future of the city as the arrivalof the Franks in the late 9th century. It was at that pointthat Barcelona and Catalonia started shaping their ownidentity, dierent from the rest of Spain.

    This is most apparent in the language - Spanish, or Castilian, has many Arab words, while Catalan has manyFrench words instead. So Catalan is not a Spanish dialect,but a language in its own right, related to other Romancelanguages.

    Barcelonas history is seen everywhere in the city. The oldest areas are located by the sea, including the shoppingenclave Barri Gotic. On the other side of the mainboulevard La Rambla lies the legendary Raval district. Untilthe 1980s, this was the slum area, home to the citysown Chinatown (Barrio Chino) and the red light district.Today, designer shops and cafs have moved in. Furthernorth is fashionable Eixample, the area created as a resultof the 19th century expansion of the city.

    DINING

    The easiest thing is to divide Barcelonas overwhelming range of restaurants into two parts: the new and the old.Some of the worlds most modern restaurants, managedby the worlds most innovative chefs (the most famous isFerrn Adri) can be found here, but there is alsotraditional Catalonian cuisine which despite being heavyon occasion, includes very good vegetable dishes(samfaina, a kind of ratatouille, escalivada, grilled, peeledpeppers, aubergines and onions espinacs a la catalan,spinach fried with garlic, pine nuts and raisins). Best

    known is the simple rustic pa amb tomquet: a slice ofbread with olive oil, salt and freshly crushed tomatoes.

    "The new ones" in particular may be expensive, but many of the best known chefs apprentices have now openedtheir own lower-priced restaurants. Generally speaking,"the old ones" provide better value for money, althougheven the traditional restaurants know how to charge. Youshould always reserve a table in Barcelona. Dinner is notserved until 21.00.Cal Pep

    CAFES

    Barcelonas caf culture is half Italian, and comes with its own set of simple rules.

    Caf con leche (caf amb llet in Catalan) is for breakfast, preferably with a croissant.

    Mid-day, especially after a meal, the locals have an espresso, caf solo (un caf) or a cortado (un tallat), whichis an espresso with milk. Caf Americano is what somewould call watered down versions of the two rst coees.

    In the afternoon, or after dinner, order a caf solo corto, a strong espresso, or a carajilloa caf solo with Spanishbrandy.Caf ZrichZrich is one of Barcelonas prime gathering spots, which makes it perfect for people watching.

    Barcelona stays awake while the rest of Europe sleeps! Nightlife starts late, preferably at a bar. Spaniards believeits smart to eat while drinking, so most bars also servetapas.

    Barcelonas trendy nightlife is in a constant state of change so the best advice is to ask around for the latestand greatest places, especially in fashion and recordshops, or to approach people who you think might know.
