Feasting in La Rambla, Barcelona

There is always at least one street in every city that gives a reason to feast and party. Here, in Barcelona, you get something extra - typically Spanish Flamingo dance theatres or auditoriums in the bustling street of La Rambla!

During the day, La Rambla appears to be shy and quiet. But when the night arrives, it transforms into an upbeat place with rhythmic music, delicious looking eateries and quaint souvenir stalls. It is definitely a place to feast!

Apart from the main street of La Rambla that seems never ending, you will notice many smaller alleys stretching perpendicular to the main. Those are equally happening and interesting. However, some alleys may appear quieter than others. In such instances, you may want to avoid venturing them alone. I do not know how safe it is but my instinct says stay away, if you can.

Bistros and shops along the busy street of La Rambla.
A place that you absolutely should not miss is the local market La Boqueria. There, you could find fresh local produces and get yourself lost in a flavourful gourmet tour. Needless to say, the market is crowded even during the night!
Beware of your precious belongings and wallets in such places. 
Here is a cool duo, adding a reason to feast at La Rambla. In fact, they themselves attracted a humble size of crowd. I couldn't help but chuckle when he started to cycle. The "sexy lady" next to him followed suit as he made his rounds.

We had a problem, though that night. It was difficult to decide what to have for dinner! At such precious moment, hubby never failed to unleash his secret weapon - yes, he suggested to have KFC! -.-
He is an absolute fan of KFC, for some reasons I couldn't comprehend.

I, somehow condoned to feasting on a sinful meal of fried chickens.

In La Rambla.

Unbelievable.
