One of the challenges in Spain has been adjusting to "Spanish time". This means eating lunch after 2.30pm and dinner any time from 10pm onwards (a time when most Australian are getting ready for bed!). Now that our stomach clocks have been reset, we have been enjoying a refreshing cervesa or two and sampling the tasty treats at a number of Spain's bustling pinchos and tapas bars.

Most memorable Barcelona foodie moments:

1. A walking gourmet tour which was a great way to check out the foodie scene and sniff out some of the oldest establishments in town (pictured below is the entrance to Barcelona's La Boqueria food market).

2. Our 3 visits to Origens 99.9%. OK maybe a little excessive but we just couldn't get enough of their mouthwatering tapas including veal and pear stew, duck with peaches and roast apple stuffed with pork.

3. A pinchos bar where everything was served in miniature - think everything from gourmet hamburgers to chocolate fondants.
