Boqueria

Fodor's Review:

Barcelona's most spectacular food market, also known as the Mercat de Sant Josep, is an explosion of life and color sprinkled with delicious little bar-restaurants. Pinotxo has long been a sanctuary for food lovers; Quim de la Boqueria is hot on its heels. El Kiosco Universal on the northeast corner has great atmosphere but only average fare. Don't miss mushroom expert and author Petràs and his Fruits del Bosc (Fruits of the Forest), a mad display of wild mushrooms, herbs, nuts, and berries at the very back.
