    I went to Carrer de Blai, the famous tapas street of Barcelona, to see if I could eat a pincho in every bar.
    Did you know my podcast, Happy Hour, is going on tour: happyhourlive.c...
    Thanks for watching.

    I love Barcelona really need to go back! I learnt recently that tapas is served on bread so you can put the bread on the top of your drink to stop flys getting in!

    • @ManWalksDogs
      @ManWalksDogs Год назад +1

      I learnt that recently too, @ 10:55 to be precise...😉
      But the question remains: who's leaving a drink around long enough that flies get interested, especially in a hot country?
      And also, if they didn't serve little bits of food with the drinks, then there's even less to entice the flies with in the first place.

    @chandley1976 Год назад +1

    The vast majority of cheap/everyday pinxos would be better with a thinner slice of bread. But that that's the filling part which justifies the price and soaks up the beer! So in essence, is the point of it to a degree. It's no longer about covering your beer.

    Blai 9 and Pincho J are some of the best on the street. Loads are poor. Zodiaco is hit and miss but never had an issue in there. However the best place on there is not a pintxo bar and is Basque/Argentinian - Koska Taberna

      I would like to think that Robbie would never eat fois gras - it's horrendous cruelty. I'm not a vegetarian and neither is Robbie but there are some things decent humane people don't eat - and that's one of them 😔

    • @smoll.miniatures
      @smoll.miniatures Год назад

      I don’t think you can hold the moral high ground regarding foie gras if you aren’t a vegetarian. The dairy and egg industry are arguably as bad or worse than foie. Even in the free range egg industry, male chicks are ground alive en masse. I accept your option however.
