A kicked-up farmers market with several rows of vendors selling produce, tapas, fish, cocktails,…read morecoffee, and specialty products. The market's natural perimeter is dotted with sit-down cafes if you prefer to have table service. Organized, good variety, good atmosphere. It is rare when a market that sells a lot of fish, does not reek of fish from a block away, so it is a very clean market and we saw evidence of constant clean-up. Delicious and impressive spot to grab a few little bites to eat your way through the market, or to bring back with a bottle of wine for your hotel picnic when you're hungry but your tired tourist bod can't bear a full service din din.

Beautiful, high-end iberico ham shop! As soon as you step in, they will ask if you'd like a sample…read moreof their finest iberico ham! And they will give you samples of whatever ham they have out for carving. The gentlemen helping us was very nice and informative. Each piece we had was flavorful and yummy! The ham that was aged longer was easier to chew with less resistance. We decided to purchase the highest quality aged 5 years, which was less salty, but robust in meaty flavor. It was absolutely delicious with rustic French bread from the bakery close to our hotel. If you're sightseeing near Casa Batllo, it's only a 3-5 minute walk around the corner! We're not iberico ham connoisseurs and I'm not sure whether or not we could tell the difference between high end or mid range iberico ham. They're all very good! We probably could have gotten some less pricey ones from the markets and would have been just as satisfied. But nonetheless, it was nice to buy something luxurious to enjoy while in Spain.

Vila de Gracia is a foodie heaven as there are countless meat, vegetable, and seafood stores all around the neighborhood. There are at least 10 meat shops within a block of our house and they are all pretty good but I've decided that Gasch is top of my list. Every cut of beef is available. They will hand slice anything you want in anyway that you need, in any quantity.. They will cut off the fat, leave the fat, season the meat, or even skewer the meat. I once asked for oxtail and they brought out 2 whole ones from the back fridge. I chose one and they chopped it up - yes, it's that fresh! And the meat is very flavorful. They specialize in Galician beef which some will argue is the best beef in the world. Service is great and the women butchers are efficient but very friendly. Prices are competitive for the neighborhood, but way cheaper than the tasteless beef in the US. Make sure you check the hours as they are only open half days on Saturday and Monday, closed on Sundays, and are always closed for daily siestas.

I was just walking by and was super hungry and figured I'd try my luck. You can buy your jamon shredded, in bits, or whatever. I went high end and in bits. I have to say, I was super impressed. I bought 100 grams and then circled back to buy 2 more 100 grams portions. They came with free bread sticks. Also, you insert your money in a huge automatic Euro dollar bill acceptor that's like 10 feet high, which was weird. The lady who worked there was very nice as we worked through my Spanglish.
