La Gauche Divine

An incredible multiconcept store near La Rambla. An example of the Catalan design is the decoration of the shop with an exclusive combination of furniture from the sixties and paintings and sculptures all around. The shop includes a little corner where you can have a drink while watching the latest trend publications and an inner patio with plants and sculptures. They have a lot of clothes and accessories for men and women, the most original pieces you can find in Barcelona. Don't miss the courreges mini dresses brought from Japan and the catwalks and special events they organize every month.

La Boqueria Market

Tempt your tastebuds at this delightful food market where the food is plentiful, fresh and can be cooked to order in one of about five small restaurants. Also a place for fresh juices and some takeaway snacks. To avoid heavy crowds, or to buy the freshest perishables e.g., seafood, go well before noon. At least in late Fall, Winter and early Spring months, La Boqueria is closed on Sundays.

Front-line stand featuring most of hams and meats a tourist needs. Accepts credit cards! and has vacuum packaging for any purchase so you don't worry through the rest of the day about smell of all the chorizos you bought.
