Typical Catalan cuisine. The name comes from Pepa Farré, a Catalan chef who spent a lot of her time cultivating different types of tomatoes. Then he founded this place :)

Have you tried La piadina? It’s an amazing Italian ‘dish’. Like a pizza but folded and lighter, amazing stuff. The most typical one is made with porchetta (roasted pork) and Tuesdays is the best day to try this.

The best vermut ever. ''Think you’ve had the best vermut? Think again. Bodega Marin’s vermut is, as it’s said, “something to write home about.” Having opened their doors in 1916, it’s no surprise walking into traditional Catalan locale feels like a trip back in time. With sky-high ceilings lined with old wooden barrels of wine, Bodega Marin’s atmosphere is equally impressive as their tapas menu. Olives, fuet, berberechos (cockles), bocadillos, and yummy wintertime caldos are all on the menu. Bodega Marin also offers an unbeatable deal on wine and cava to go for €1 to €2 per liter.''
