if you Like Italian food
there's a place near Colom which is absolutely fantastic.

There's actually two, but I think one is closed (at the moment anyway) - Il Tre de Venezie, and Il Mercat de Venezie.

Fresh pasta/meat/cheese/bread/butter - all bloody mouthwatering.

Could be costly for large groups though, but well worth it

Sounds great

put the Catalonians are a proud race and so we may only eat Catalonia fodder! Which is no bad thing!

I'll store mentally for next time I'm there...

maybe, but my missus isnt that proud
to avoid good food.

in that case, try La Rita, on Aragon, between Pau Claris and Passeig de Gracia. Not particularly off the tourist trail, but your friends will most certinaly know it.

I recommend the bravas there - they come with xistorra and are excellent as a starter.

The place is quite cheap as well - a more economic option than the Italian joint
