Food Tour of Poble Sec

If there's one thing a local should know, it's a good bar and a cozy café. Fitting in in Barcelona means learning these places, so go with Alexandra and find them. Breakfast is a good place to start and will provide energy for a visit to el Molino, a recently restored cabaret theater.

Afterward, stroll past other places and learn their history while enjoying vermouth, wine and tapas. Art is another key to acculturation, which you'll experience through the works of a local comic artist at a funky neighborhood shop.
Finish the day at a refurbished bar where tradition has been mixed with modern design to compliment the curious cuisine.
