Barcelona Gluten-free Meals Tour – The Fitnessista

Sharing a recap of our expertise with the Barcelona gluten-free meals tour.

Hello pals! How are you? I hope that you simply’re having an important week. We’re having fun with being again at residence despite the fact that we’re positively lacking our Spain adventures. After 5 weeks in Europe, I positively received used to that life 😉

One thing we discovered throughout our journey: how a lot all of us LOVED Barcelona. It was our first time and for the reason that Pilot wasn’t capable of make it to the a part of the journey – he was there for the final 4 days of our time there – we advised him we simply have to return.

A serious spotlight: the gluten-free food tour, lead by Dvir Bar.

As you guys know, we’re main foodies and love trying out new meals and eating places domestically and once we journey. I’ve been strict gluten-free for 2 years now as a part of my therapeutic journey, and again in January, we discovered that P had a extreme gluten sensitivity. Whereas I’ve been across the gluten-free block for some time, P remains to be studying.. and is usually (very understandably) disppointed when there isn’t a gluten-free choice for her.

To brighten her Barcelona day, I did some analysis for gluten-free choices, and found that Barcelona is a HAVEN for gluten-free meals choices and that that they had fashionable gluten-free meals tour. I signed us up immediately.

When the day arrived, P and I have been fairly pumped about it. Liv was sport and excited to attempt some new meals.

Our information, Dvir, was completely fantastic. He spoke English (our group of 11 folks have been all American) and has been Celiac for 40 years. He knew one of the best of one of the best spots in Barcelona, and took us to 6 totally different locations for superb gluten-free choices. We had chocolate, jamón, ice cream on gluten-free cones, pizza, pastries, empanadas, it was superb.

I cherished how the tour was arrange. We walked all the time, and once we received to every spot, that they had a number of samples for us to attempt. On the pizza restaurant, our desk had 5 full pizzas of one of the best flavors. It gave us the chance to attempt numerous various things, and we have been very full and pleased by the tip.

Whereas I don’t wish to wreck the surprises of the tour, listed here are my high three locations that we visited:

– Glutery for gluten-free empanadas.

The rooster and onion was all the things…. I’m going to dream in regards to the empanada till we’re again.

Take a look at this face. Pure pleasure.

– Cøliaki Bakery.

We tried an assortment of gluten-free pastries, together with Nutella croissants that set my soul free. Often gf pastries are disappointing and these have been gentle, flavorful, and completely candy.

– Messi pizza.

Pizza is one other factor that always disappoints me within the gluten-free world. It’s often tremendous crunchy, chewy, and/or bland. This was REAL pizza and we received to attempt some unbelievable flavors. I additionally had my first beer in years!! I feel he stated they’ve 40 various kinds of gluten-free beer?!

For those who’re Celiac or gluten-free for well being causes, otherwise you simply love meals and wish to attempt new locations, I can’t advocate this tour sufficient. Heads up that it books out upfront, so e book your spot as quickly as you recognize you’re going to Barcelona. The link is here!

And only a heads up, this isn’t sponsored or something like that and I fortunately paid for our participation. Simply pleased to unfold the phrase!
