🇪🇸 Barcelona Raw Seafood Bible 🐟✨
📍 "For sashimi lovers – this is YOUR city!" 🏆 1. Mercat de Santa Caterina 💰 Local prices, insane deals: €28 seafood platter (vs. Boqueria’s tourist markup!). Red prawns: €7 vs. €15 elsewhere. Fatty tuna (toro): Steal of the century! ⚠️ Heads up: Bring Japanese soy sauce – their "cooking soy" ruins toro. Skip Mondays: Fishermen don’t work = slim pickings. 🎪 2. Mercat de la Boqueria 🦪 Touristy but convenient: Plump uni (better than Santa Caterina’s). Bonus: Coconut juice + jamón stalls. English-friendly staff. 💸 Downside: Pricey + hit-or-miss freshness. 🍽️ 3. Tunateca Balfegó (Fine Dining) 🔪 All-tuna tasting menu: 10+ courses of toro magic – never repetitive! Mind-blowing textures: From tataki to smoked collar. 🍤 4. Tapas Bars Everywhere Fresh squid/razor clams/oysters – ask for less salt! Pro tip: Vinitus does garlic shrimp right. #BarcelonaSashimi #SeafoodHeaven #EatLikeALocal 🍣
