Enjoy a delicious variety of tapas at Alaire Ramblas Terrace. No trip to Barcelona is complete without tapas taste test. Tapas are small savory dishes, snacks, or appetizers popularly featured in Spanish cuisine. Bombas and croquetas are both popular tapas served in Barcelona, as is the famous Patatas Bravas. This dish consists of perfectly fried potatoes lovingly smothered with a special spicy “bravas” sauce. Many bars in Barcelona consider Patatas Bravas a signature dish as the recipe of the “bravas” sauce varies. There are two main styles: one with a mayonnaise base and one with a tomato base. Alaire Ramblas Terrace serves up the former alongside delicious versions of both Bombas and croquetas.

Traditional Foods: Try some Catalan culinary classics while in Barcelona. The simple yet tasty Pa amb tomàquet or Pan con tomate in Spanish ("Bread with tomato") is a great place to start. Traditionally made as a way to soften hard and dry bread, this delightfully tasty dish consists of rubbing a local variety of tomato onto toasted bread, then seasoning it with olive oil and a touch of salt. Restaurante Fonde España puts a creative twist on this traditional dish by serving it on seaweed bread. While perusing the menu, keep a look out for Tomàquets del Pagès amb pa d’algues i la nostra Gilda.
