Description: Tapas BarCelona on pieni ja intiimi tapasbaari suurkaupungin ytimessä Aleksin wanhan kauppakujan suojassa. Espanjalaisia makuja, raikkaita juomia ja rentoa porukkaa - "kuten kotona espanjassa." Arkipäivisin tarjoilemme lounasta seisovasta pöydästä, kuuman hyöryävää keittoa, raikkaita salaatteja ja maistuvia pääruokia. Tuoreet leivät, kahvi ja jälkiruoka täydentävät lounaselämyksen. Viikonloppuisin ja iltaisin nautitaan tapaksia viinin, oluen ja muiden juomien kera. Meillä ystävät kokoontuvat Sangrialle tai Cavalle. Tapaksien salaisuutena ovat perinteiset reseptit ja korkealaatuiset raaka-aineet suomalaisia raaka-aineita unohtamatta. Tule kokemaan Tapas BarCelonan suosion salaisuus!

If you have been to Barcelona, maybe you don't think this tapas food is as real as it could. But it's actually even better. You can't find anything similar in Helsinki.

In Helsinki the places to get easy and okay priced tapas are not too many. Barcelona is worth your dime as you evidently aren't in Madrid.

Their lunch buffet is a great option for budget-minded travelers visiting Helsinki despite it being among the most expensive cities in the world. You can have real (and tasty) food for about the same price you would pay for mediocre and unhealthy fast food. A win-win situation!

Anyone that has ever had tapas in Spain (or in any decent place) will be disappointed, to say the least. I was not expecting much, but I still thought a "Spanish tapas bar" chef would at least know the basics (not to use frozen potatos, let alone to boil them when making a "tortilla de patas"), but I was proved...

Barcelona is a small Tapas bar located just off the main road (Pohjoisesplanadi, near the harbor, ). I got there by mistake as it's hidden in a small courtyard. The place is small and feels very intimate. Small tables and not too many of them. I came with a friend, and both of us took the 3 Tapas deal -... More
