139. The Palau de la Música Catalana  is a concert hall in Barcelona. Designed in the Catalan modernista style by the architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner, it was built between 1905 and 1908 for the Orfeó Català, a choral society founded in 1891 that was a leading force in the Catalan cultural movement that came to be known as the Renaixença. It was inaugurated February 9, 1908.
The Palau is located on a cramped street, the Carrer de Sant Francesc de Paula, in the section of old Barcelona. 
Most of the other prominent modernista buildings, those designed by Antoni Gaudí.

Curious Dali

23/12/2015

0 Comments

 
138. The Dalí Theatre and Museum , is a museum of the artist Salvador Dalí in his home town of Figueres. Dali is buried there in a crypt below the stage.
The heart of the museum is the building that housed the town's theater when Dalí was a child, where one of the first public exhibitions of young Dalí's art was shown.
The museum displays the single largest and most diverse collection of works by Salvador Dalí, the core of which was from the artist's personal collection. In addition to Dalí paintings from all decades of his career, there are Dalí sculptures, 3-dimensional collages, mechanical devices, and other curiosities from Dalí's imagination. 
[REF: Wikipedia and http://www.salvador-dali.org]

For more Information on Dali please refer to the Artsy Web with a full  insight on Dali's bio, over 250 of his works, exclusive articles, as well as up-to-date Dali exhibition listing.

​137. Barcelona is so big and so beautiful that sometimes it is just hard when you first land to find your bearings. Allow me to share with you this map that I came across where it clearly shows the landmarks such as the Sagrada Familia, the Agbar, the Arco del Triunfo, the Pedrera and the Camp Nou in relations to the sea. Enjoy!

Probably the Best Turron in Barcelona and in the World!

23/12/2015

0 Comments

 
136. You can only buy this turron if you are local as it is so heavy that you won’t want to carry it with you all day. Planelles has the most,  absolutely delicious, they have some many varieties, but sometimes traditional and classic are just the winners. Try the soft turron or the one with milk chocolate. it is so expensive but certainly amazing and worth trying at least once in a lifetime!

133. If you can´t decide what to have for lunch try going to the Nacional. This cool old factory turned into a selection of fine restaurants. They have a diversity of choices varying from fresh fish, to meat specialties, fine tapas or quick bar service. 
A little crowded but certainly impresses every single person that walks in. Very cool concept!

​122. This restaurant is not simply a restaurant! It is an incredibly four hour experience, where you suffer a continous culinary shock! Jordi Cruz, the head Chef is not only one of the famous Jury memebers in the TV program Masterchef, but also leads this 2** Michelin Star beautiful restaurant.  

They greet you already with a Bloody Mary sorbet which with the help of nitrogen they convert liquid into solid within seconds in front your you covering with whole table with foam! One dish after the other is a surprise, a never seen before type of meal. Just an amazing experience to enjoy with family and friends. Reservations are a must!

​121. Barcelona has so many food options is just so difficult to choose from. Sometimes you just don´t have time to think and just need to grab something on the go and grab some lunch to continue working at the office. If you are having one of these days, Nostrum is a great option. They have lunch boxes for 1,2 and 3€ (you must register and get your card to enjoy these prices) and the best part... its home made food and many healthy options. Hurray!!

​120. If you are looking for any kind of dried mushrooms, spices, nuts, grains, cereals, chocolate or even tea Casa Ruiz is your place. If you fancy and are in the mood of cooking an amazing recipe this Christmas that you just discovered and need of those American ingredients impossible to find in your daily market, this place will have it! I was pleasantly surprised with the amount go of spices they have. We love cooking with spices, as we try to be healthy and substitute slat with flavors which are nutritionally rich and spices are a great option. The amount of unsalted nuts is also vast. Cool place to know when you are in the mood of cooking international food!

119. Yesterday I finally managed to check out myself this curious tea concept, mentioned in various other blogs.... I had some catch up girly time with my lovely friends Patri & Carlota. The Hotel Majestic has created what is called the Majestic Fashion Tea. Where every day from 16H until 19H one can enjoy a wonderful tea selection with the most exquisite plum cake (soft and tender) accompanied with  cute and delicious macarrons and the best of all a chic menu of éclairs. The éclairs as the most glamorous, delicate and majestic pastries in France. The Hotel Majestic has designed a menu of éclairs where each one has a name like Rosa Clara, Jimmy Choo or even Bulgary! Beautifully classy!
