A Taste of Catalonia

liz March 13, 2009 0 comments Barcelona, Catalonia, Europe

Barcelona Photoblog does exactly what it says – a new photo of Barcelona (nearly) every day. Through photos of his city, Carlos Lorenzo shows a taste of life in Barcelona. And there were some very tasty looking photos recently – the olives are just for starters.

The first months of the year are calcotada season in Catalonia. These calcots, which are a kind of cross between leek and onion, are eaten grilled as part of a traditional meal called a calcotada.

It’s not all about food – take a look at the Barcelonians for a fascinating close up of the people of Barcelona.
