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 just’re having an excellent week. We’re having fun with being again at residence although we’re positively lacking our Spain adventures. After 5 weeks in Europe, I positively obtained 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 because the 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 instructed him we simply have to return.

A significant 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 regionally and after 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 continues to be studying.. and is typically (very understandably) disppointed when there isn’t a gluten-free possibility 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 well-liked gluten-free meals tour. I signed us up immediately.

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

Our information, Dvir, was completely great. He spoke English (our group of 11 folks had been all American) and has been Celiac for 40 years. He knew the very best of the very 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 the whole time, and after we obtained 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 the very best flavors. It gave us the chance to attempt a variety of various things, and we had been very full and joyful by the top.

Whereas I don’t need to damage the surprises of the tour, listed below are my prime three locations that we visited:

– Glutery for gluten-free empanadas.

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

Have 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 had been gentle, flavorful, and completely candy.

– Messi pizza.

Pizza is one other factor that usually disappoints me within the gluten-free world. It’s normally tremendous crunchy, chewy, and/or bland. This was REAL pizza and we obtained to attempt some unimaginable flavors. I additionally had my first beer in years!! I believe he stated they’ve 40 several types of gluten-free beer?!

In the event you’re Celiac or gluten-free for well being causes, otherwise you simply love meals and need 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 joyful to unfold the phrase!
