One of my favorite places is the market of Las Ramblas called the Boqueria. I recommend coming here and grabbing some bread, wine, jamon and cheese then taking it back to your hotel and have yourself a quaint picnic.

About this place:

The Boqueria market (also known as Mercat de San Josep) just off Las Ramblas, is one of the most famous markets in Barcelona Spain. It is a wonderful mix of goods, voices, scents that absolutely deserve a visit.

    When I was in Barcelona recently for the massive GSMA World Congress it was a wonderful escape to get to the Boqueria for lunch at the fantastic Universal Cafe. Just a short Metro ride from the mad world of mobile communications saw me perched at the bar with a plate of pan fried mixed wild mushrooms in front of me. Along with a chilled glass of white, some grilled vegetables, some octopus and far too much bread and garlic. Delicious. Three times out of five lunches isn't a bad recommendations!
