It&#8217;s called Buenaventura!<\/p>\n<p>At Buenaventura authenticity is key, and they use the most natural products available. Moreover, they use seasonal, locally sourced products, for a 100% environmentally friendly concept.<\/p>\n<p>Using fresh local produce, this restaurant offers a wide variety of tasty and healthy dishes. Your health is important here, but so is your pallet!<\/p>\n<p>You can come for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a snack, as the menu is exceptional at any time of day!<\/p>\n<h2>Buenaventura&#8217;s delicious menu to suit your tastes and needs<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ul class=\"is-style-checklist\">\n<li>The lunchtime set menu includes a starter, main course, and home made dessert as well as a drink, for &euro;13!<\/li>\n<li>There is a great selection for vegetarians, vegans and gluten intolerant customers and if you want a particular dish made without gluten, you just need to ask!:)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9564 size-large\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-ensalada-730x488.jpg\" alt=\"Buenaventura salad\" width=\"730\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/barcelona-top-travel-tips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-ensalada-730x488.jpg 730w, https:\/\/barcelona-top-travel-tips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-ensalada.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I went for the set lunch menu, and I was not sorry!

And my main course was just as good: a creamy vegetable risotto that almost brought a tear to my eye.<\/p>\n<p>For dessert, the menu includes a daily special (in my case a delicious pudding) but you may like to pay a little more for one of the other home made desserts (there is a long and mouth-watering list)!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9568 size-large\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-postres-730x414.jpg\" alt=\"Buenaventura dessert\" width=\"730\" height=\"414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/barcelona-top-travel-tips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-postres-730x414.jpg 730w, https:\/\/barcelona-top-travel-tips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-postres-256x145.jpg 256w, https:\/\/barcelona-top-travel-tips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-postres-512x290.jpg 512w, https:\/\/barcelona-top-travel-tips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-postres.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/>\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The lunch menu also includes the Benedict option, with a natural juice, a generous portion of eggs Benedict, and a hot drink (tea or coffee) for&nbsp;&euro;10 (a top tip for brunch or an early dinner)!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Buenaventura&#8217;s drinks menu will quench your thirst in the best possible way<\/h2>\n<p>\nThere&#8217;s no slacking on the drinks front. Given their commitment to quality produce, they create incredible smoothies, not to mention a range of natural juices all made with fresh fruit. The smoothie menu is so long you may have to try more than one, and like me, you will probably come back (more than once) to try more. You&#8217;ve been warned!<\/p>\n<p>The list of teas is also extensive, and there&#8217;s nothing better to warm up a long Winter afternoon. Definitely a top tip!\n<\/p>\n<h2>Buenaventura and its relaxing atmosphere<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9570 size-large\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-local2-730x414.jpg\" alt=\"Buenaventura room\" width=\"730\" height=\"414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/barcelona-top-travel-tips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-local2-730x414.jpg 730w, https:\/\/barcelona-top-travel-tips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-local2-256x145.jpg 256w, https:\/\/barcelona-top-travel-tips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-local2-512x290.jpg 512w, https:\/\/barcelona-top-travel-tips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/09\/buenaventura-local2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Buenaventura occupies an interesting and modern space. It is simply decorated with a considered style, combining original beams and pillars with a touch of color (there is one entirely pink wall!).<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s an ample space that inspires calm. The atmosphere is relaxed and there is even a table with couches that you can request if you are in group.
