Join us on a journey through Barcelona’s vibrant culinary heart, where every bite tells a story. This isn’t just a tour—it’s an evening designed for those who love to eat, drink, and explore like a true local. Together, we’ll uncover hidden gems, handpicked by Chef Jon Cake himself (trust us, he knows the good stuff).
We’ll start with exclusive tastings at top spots where award-winning chefs work their magic. No tourist traps—just authentic flavors that’ll make your taste buds sing.
As we stroll through El Born, Barcelona’s most charming historic neighborhood, you’ll soak in its vibrant atmosphere while making room for what’s next. We’ll also visit a traditional food store to uncover the secrets behind iconic local dishes (and maybe snag a trick or two for your own kitchen).
Finally, the main event: a gourmet feast with three starters, a chef-worthy dinner, dessert, and perfectly paired drinks.
