Mercat de Mercats - Food Galore!

Hi, people! The weather is still so warm in Barcelona, and I'm loving it! I mean...it's the perfect weather all year. Not cold enough for a heavy jacket or not hot enough to be sweating like a pig. Sooo... this past weekend we went to the Mercat de Mercats, a weekend food festival with food stalls from the famed neigborhood markets, including a few of those of the highly regarded La Boquería.

Come on in...

The foodie event was held at the square right in front of the Barcelona Cathedral. 

Color! 

 Spaniards loove their meat products.

 Lots of folks took advantage of the samples.

 Hanging meat, rolled up meat, reclining meat...

 ...and meat on a stick!

 People even dared to sell fish out here. Any tourists out there willing to ice-pack some imported fish?

 The glorious Northern pintxos.

 It's predictable in Spain that things get crazy crowded after 5pm.

 There was a nice drumming band that came to get the crazy foodfest going.

 If I were to be a drummer in this band, I would be this woman. She was having SO MUCH FUN!!

Thanks for visiting!
