I'm doing a city trip to Barcelona in April from Monday to Friday and my companion and we have to pick 5 restaurants, 4 times for an evening and one lunch (the Friday).
We are major foodies, like special cuisines, different from home (Belgium), and also really appreciate fine dining, unique combinations, gastronomic revelations and tasting menus with good alcohol pairings (bonus if the restaurant does not limit itself to exclusively wine) . We'd like to not do the same style of restaurant/food in a row but vary in between (e.g., tapas -> asian -> mexican -> tapas). Price is not an issue, as long as it it worth it.
In that sense, we've already decided on Disfrutar, Tickets, Cinc Sentits and Hoja Santa and still in doubt about the last one.
For variety sake, we are thinking of an asian option and we thought of Dos Palillos, Pakta and Koy Shunka.
So, three questions:
(1) What do you think of our choices? Doable for a nice city trip? Too much the same style? Better options available?
(2) What order of restaurant would you recommend? We thought of ending the trip with Cinc Sentits, the most traditional option we think, but with a nice lunch menu to end the trip.
(3) What asian option would you pick? Or a different asian altogether? Or another option?
Lots of questions but trying to plan a very good city trip for a special occasion, so working on it a lot!
