This Week’s Places To Be - Photo Diary - Travel & Cake

We’ve been to Travel & Cake a few weeks back actually with some friends, to try out their 
cakes of course and we weren’t disappointed. They have quite a few cakes to choose from and some 
vegetarian choices for food if , of course, you’re hungry.  The place is really nice inside, but it’s quite crowded
 and hence loud as well, so next time, when the weather gets a bit warmer we’ll try to enjoy some other cakes on their terrace.

This Week’s Places to Be - Photo Diary - OBBIO FOOD

Hi,

This is a place that I'm really grateful for. I found out about it right when it  opened and then a friend actually took 

me there for lunch.

Now it has become the organic supermarket we buy our food from!

What's really great about it is that it has a restaurant, that serves delicious organic and fresh food, where you can 

choose from variety of things, majority vegan food, and sweets as well.

It's a pleasant place and it also has a small and cute terrace where you can enjoy your lunch.

The second greatest thing about it, is that it is really close to the yoga studio I usually go to, so I can enjoy a nice 

and healthy meal between classes :)

Cheers

This Week’s Places to Be - Photo Diary - Ugot

This morning we went to a place really close to us, as we have seen it quite a lot of times without 

entering. It’s a cute place with a lot of light, decorated in a vintage style. They have a great variety of 

foods with vegetarian options, but we decided to go straight to the cakes. We weren’t disappointed, 

our cheesecakes were absolutely delicious. 

The place is perfect for a Sunday brunch, or for any other day in fact. They play music from the 60s 

but you can’t really hear it from the people chitchatting. Ah.. and they went vintage all the way since 

their cups and saucers are exactly as if they were from my grandmother's Sunday set. 

Wish you a great week, and here are some pictures from  the place.

Cheers from Barcelona !

This Week’s Places To Be - Photo Diary - Salterio

Barcelona seems less crowded this time of the year, now that the holidays are almost over,
so we decided to go to this small a tiny oriental restaurant - teahouse, called Salterio.

It’s a really, really small place by the way, and very, very cozy. Think of an oriental style cafe in the
gothic center of the city and you’ll get the feeling I’m on about. The place is almost entirely lit by
candlelight, has all kinds of teapots everywhere you look, the wall is made of stones, the roof has an
old wooden structure etc. I could go on forever.

Last time we took a peak inside it was so full we could’t get in, this time was no different either, but
we managed to find a place near the entrance to enjoy a cup of tea, while loads of people from all
around the world were trying their luck to get in as well.

The menu is quite diverse, has many different flavours and kinds of tea and vegetarian options for
snacks as well. We opted for a Yogi tea with vegetal milk and some sweet sardo made of apples,
walnuts, sesame and thin bread. 

The staff was really nice, there was quiet and good music playing, and I’ve heard someone say they
even have a band play live music sometimes, but I wonder how they make them fit in though. 

This Week’s Places To Be - Photo Diary - Nomad Coffee

My boyfriend is a big coffee lover and as Christmas is just around the corner, he decided to buy some coffee for the loved ones.

We went to Nomad, a coffee roasting shop in Barcelona. We visited the “show room” and tried out 

one of its coffees and cookies. The place is really one to recommend to those who love coffee.  

This Week’s Places To Be - Photo Diary - Cafe Bistro Petit Pot

I had second thoughts whether to do this post or not, since for me this place is not really one to be, but in the end I decided to do it because I thought there might be someone who actually enjoys it. So if you’re in the lookout for a quite busy, meticulously designed, and a bit expensive place to have a breakfast or brunch on a Saturday, this place is for you. The food was ok, but the best thing  that it happened was that the sun's reflection on the glass door made a cute rainbow on our table. 

Places To Be - Photo Diary - El magnifico Barcelona

Hi guys,

I want to present to you a really good coffee shop in Barcelona.

I don't remember if I have mentioned it before, but my boyfriend is a coffee maniac, so yesterday, 

after my yoga class, I went to buy him some coffee grains.

As I entered the place, where he told me to go to for coffee, I was amazed and almost became a 

coffee passionate myself.  It's a great place located on a lovely street in Born, the people there are 

professionals and really passionate about coffee.

Since there were a lots of kinds of coffee beans and products I almost grabbed something for me as 

well but in the end I remained faithful to my green tea, a really good one by the way,  and bought the 

freshly roasted coffee beans for my boyfriend.

I haven't had the camera with me but I took some pics as soon as I arrived home.

Places To Be - Photo Diary - Vintage Markets

In Barcelona you can find many vintage markets. I have just been to one last week, called Flea Market, 

it’s held often in lots of interesting places like train stations, squares, or even at the film library.

If you’re in the mood to buy, you have a great variety of things to chose from, like rare objects, 

bicycles, vinyls, clothes or photo cameras, and if you’re in the mood to sell you can easily rent a 

table for the next event. Go on, and give it a try !

Jardines de Barcelona - Vespres - Places to Be

Last week as we were passing by the gardens of the University of Barcelona we noticed that there 

was a party going on. We stayed there for a while and made sure to come back later that day, as they 

had all kinds of events from live concerts to parties with Djs taking place all day long. 

The atmosphere was great as the garden is a really pleasant place, full of trees, that provide shade and fresh air, there we a lot of young and happy people enjoying the surroundings, the events, the served 

foods and drinks, as ourselves.  We'll make sure to keep a close eye on the future happenings there 

since we had a great time. Wish you all a wonderful week.

This Week’s Places To Be - Photo Diary - Salt Beach Club

Another great place to be in Barcelona is the terrace of Salt Beach Club, especially in the weekend 

afternoons when there are djs playing. The events are organised by the W Hotel and the terrace is 

right before it on the front row from the beach. We were there last Saturday and the view was exceptional 

since you could see the sunset over the whole Barceloneta beach while nice house music was playing.
