We had been to a food market on Les Rambles and had enjoyed great oysters at a few stalls, but we…read morewere saving ourselves for something different but didn't know what. The food market was uncomfortably packed with tourists and we contributed to this, it also had a mild sewage 3rd world whiff and at 34c it wasn't pleasant. The last time I got a pong like this was in Bangkok. I've no doubt we've also contributed to the fact that the price for food here has gone up noticeably, but not as exponentially as it will over the next few months if politicians aren't brave enough to cap energy price hikes amid obscene oil company profit scouring. Please don't hold any collective breath waiting on politicians of integrity. So we pulled out of the pongy crowded market and ambled the Rambles. Then the smell hit, pinched our noses and we were pleased. Garlic & chilli hit. And we just knew it was right on. So we followed our noses. We could see the wok master at his pyromaniac work from outside this small narrow place. A not enough room to swing a cat space. Mind you I can't think why anyone would want to treat a cat so. It was full of 20 and 30 somethings both those dining and those cooking. Intense gas heat, high flame, thin steel = little oil, rapid stir fry cooking of thin cut meats, vegetables and proper spice balance. Perfection. So the price is structured. I opted for thin noodles rather than rice, chicken as protein, cashew nuts for delicious texture, oyster mushrooms and beansprouts for taste and, of course, chilli spice. They add white onions, carrots and greens at no extra charge but I did say to go heavy on the fresh coriander at the end and they did. From start to paper carton it was a few brief minutes. €14.20 (£12.) and the serving was enough for two. 3 green stars. Wooden forks, spoons and paper tissues on site with narrow uncomfortable seating but great fresh cooked, hot tasty food. The oyster mushrooms and cashews sure pushed up the price but it was worth every cent particularly the cashews and honestly we didn't need the chicken. I noted that we passed many places offering all manner of paella - meat, fish, vegetarian but no smell not a whiff of garlic, frying onion so I avoid as I'm cynical enough to think it's pre frozen and microwaved food.

The commute via walking was kind of annoying - lots of construction going on around this area so lots of dust. It's a tiny whole in the wall place but a large dining area upstairs. As soon as you walk in is where you order. I've posted pictures of the menu so you can better understand. The left side of the menu are the poke bowls. You can substitute rice for salad or kale if you would like. And the right side are the sushi burritos. Reasonable prices for the different bowl sizes. I got a medium size poke bowl and was satisfied. The sushi burrito was also filling although smaller then what I'm used to back in the states. Highly recommend: Rub the Salmon Bowl The Anchor sushi burrito Definitely coming back here again.

As I ate it, I thought it was fine. Nothing mindblowing. Your basic, solid street food. I know my fellow Yelpers are doing cartwheels, but maybe they don't get out much. A Tu Bola is a tiny restaurant and they get points for allowing takeout, which can be hard to find in a town of slow tapas. If I were in a hurry for food, I might return, but I think you can do a lot better in Barcelona.

Healthy, Hearty, and Huge Portions in Barcelona!…read more Been craving something on the healthier side while in Barcelona and came across this spot on Google with tons of high ratings -- and now I see why! Key thing to remember: this place is CASH ONLY, so come prepared. The workers (or maybe the owners) were super, super friendly and very welcoming from the moment we walked in. We decided to eat inside, and wow -- the portions were absolutely ginormous! I ordered the chicken plate, and hubby got the beef and chicken plate, and both were delicious. Each plate came loaded with rice, lentils, red cabbage, tomato salad, lettuce, avocado sauce, plus a spicy hot sauce on the side. We also ordered fries, and it even came with bread to scoop everything up -- such a satisfying meal. All this for 24€. Definitely a must-try if you're looking for something filling but still feels a bit lighter on the tummy while exploring Barcelona. Happy eats in Barcelona!

Don't plan on eating inside as it is very tiny with 4 tables (they don't let you eat inside if you bring outside drinks) and CASH ONLY.

Came to grab some yakiudon and chicken teriyaki during a late night outing in Barcelona…read more The ambiance was cool, but high energy as the orders were quickly prepared to order. We got the yakiudon with beef, chicken teriyaki, and deep fried chicken nuggets. The person at the counter was pleasant and began choosing what we wanted in our dishes from a display of fresh veggies and toppings. Once our items were assembled, our rice and noodles were first tossed in an open flamed wok (situated at the windows at the front of the restaurant for passerby to see) and our veggies added. The restaurant had indoor seating as well. The yakiudon was good with the veggies and noodles fresh. The chicken teriyaki has a good taste as well with the rice topped with chunks of teriyaki covered chicken pieces. The fried chicken nuggets were ok as well. All in all, a good place to grab some Asian street food during the late evenings in Barcelona,

I ordered the pancakes with chocolate, strawberry, banana, chocolate chip, and dulce de leche they were very yummy but also too sweet. There was a ton of dulce de leche, that I almost need something savory to cut the sweetness. My cousin enjoy their chicken and waffles, but we ordered a churro nut which they ended up bringing.

I got rice noodles as my base, with chicken, calamari, peanuts, cilantro and fried garlic. The base comes with "mixed vegetables" which really is a mix of bean sprouts. For my sauce, I got the Asian Hot Sauce but it really wasn't hot at all so I'm not sure if it was really mixed in or not. I ended up assessing the chili sauce they had on the table with the fresh verde chili - it was good! I'd probably add more vegetables if I get another chance to eat here. So yes, I'd recommend adding more veggies. They had broccoli, spinach...and more options! A nice chain to try if you've had enough Spanish food and want something a little different.
