"The classic Spanish market bar has a long metallic counter, a lively local crowd, and a small menu of great regional dishes—which is exactly what you'll find at the Mercat de Santa Catalina. Come here for cheeses and jamón, and pop in and out of the handful of mostly-standing-room bars. Start at Bar Joan Frau for a breakfast sandwich in the morning or a variat for lunch, and then hop on over to Arume and order the dim sum del día. Your dumplings will arrive steaming and stuffed with langoustines, oxtail, or fish." - Isabella Noble
