Oooooh, Barcelona!

Went on a quick trip to Barcelona last week.... and for all the times I've been to the Mercat Santa Caterina, I have never eaten at the big market restaurant that's on the end / part of it!

(Oh, so I've only actually been to the market twice, not about 12 times like my lead-in made it sound.) 

Amazing place, great food, good buzzy atmosphere. And this fun herb wall!

Long farmhouse tables and trees running along the entire length of the restaurant.

My "medium rare" T-bone. More rare than medium-rare. Good thing that's how I like it.

A photo of the outside, snapped on a previous trip. The market restaurant is on the end there, behind the arched doorways where all the mopeds are parked.
