Traditional Spanish Tortilla with Chorizo

El Xampanyet

El Born·$

€6.50

A thick, rustic potato omelet with chunks of spicy local chorizo.

Tip: It's one of the few places where the tortilla doesn't feel dry. The chorizo adds a great hit of fat and smoke. Ask for a slice from the center if you like it more moist.

Vinitus

Eixample·$$

Rosetta Barcelona

Eixample·$$

€15.50

Pillowy potato dumplings in a rich, creamy blue cheese sauce.
