Porrera 2005 Sangenís i Vaqué

Porrera 2005 Sangenís i Vaqué

This is a powerful young red wine. Very high density. The most surprising thing is that it is from 2005 and it is in perfect conditions, and it will remain in this way for several more years. Its price is around 9 eur per bottle.

Joan d'Anguera

Celler Joan d'Anguera

This is a very good wine producer from DO Montsant. Fortunately I had chance to visit the cellar in Darmós. It is a nice experience, and you will find better prices than in normal shops: a whole box (6 bottles)of finca l'Argatà for 75 eur. A whole box (6 bottles) of Planella for 50 eur.
They have a nice wine-tasting room and offer wine tastings for 70 eur per group (up to 10 people per group). If you do not buy the wine-tasting, the visit is free of charge and includes a cup of finca l'Argatà. Worth to visit.

Fever-Tree

Fever-Tree tonic water

This is an expensive tonic water that produces special gintonics. This one is more dry, less sweet. To be sincere, I am too used to drink schweppes that I prefer the schweppes taste.
To be more precise: I prefer a gintònic of tanqueray ten at TIRSA than a gintonic with fever-tree in any other place.

Beton

Beton

Beton is a popular cocktail in Czech Republic. It is a joke of words: Beton means "concrete" (cement). It is the acronym of Becherovka & TOnic water. In my opinion you will get a better result mixing pine apple juice with Tonic water.

Pasteleria Viu

Panaderia pasteleria Viu
Paseo del Hortaz 36, Tamarit de Llitera

This is a nice pastry shop that produces outstanding "coques" for a very reasonable price (below 10 eur per Kg). Much better than a pizza. Outstanding quality/price ratio.

Ciutat Comtal

Ciutat Comtal
Rambla Catalunya 18, Barcelona

This is a lively place for tapas in Barcelona. It offers very nice quality and reasonable prices. There is always a waitting queue, but you don't need to wait for a long time.
This place is plenty of tourist. I guess that it is recommended in some tourist guide...
Worth to visit.
