The Carrer Sant Domènec del Call is a street in the heart of the Gothic quarter with more than its share of hidden gems. Our absolute favourite is the Alcoba Azul (the Blue Room).<\/p>\n

Let yourself be swept away by delicious food and laid-back jazz for a truly memorable pause in the middle of Barcelona’s old town!<\/p>\n

Alcoba Azul: small and intimate, but still room for a terrace<\/h2>\n

\nThe bar\/restaurant’s name suits it down to the ground: the minute you step through the door, you get the distinct feeling of being in someone’s house. The stone walls, wooden furniture and soft lighting create a feeling of comfort and security.<\/p>\n

The bar has developed quite a reputation, and you may have to wait to get a table. If so, give your name to one of the staff and make yourself comfortable at the bar with a glass of (excellent) wine or a cold beer.<\/p>\n

The terrace, which borders the charming Plaça Manuel Ribé, is also a nice place to sit, but once again, it can be hard to get a seat.<\/p>\n

Spanish cuisine with a twist at Alcoba Azul<\/h2>\n

\nAlthough the menu is fairly extensive, the chef at Alcoba Azul describes his cuisine as “bar-style food, simple, but with a twist”.<\/p>\n

All of the products used in the kitchens come from Catalonia and Extremadura, the owners’ home region.<\/p>\n

The menu includes a choice of salads, open sandwiches and a variety of tapas: so far, nothing out of the ordinary. But just wait…\n<\/p>\n
