Tapas = dim sum? Yum!

EN After strolling through the beautiful Gracia Festival our tummy got hungry and Damaris and Dani ( bloggers from The Cat You and Us ) showed me a pretty cool tapas place called Moritz where we had a tapas lunch! I never really had authentic tapas so I was pretty excited to eat at Moritz as it the interior of this restaurant looks amazing!

Tapas reminds me of the Chinese ‘dim sum’ because they both have small portions, they are appetizers before the main meal and in terms of ingredient they both have similar usage! Except for the cheese and olive in the dim sum. Also there is more steaming process in dim sum than in tapas. These two very different cuisine yet a lot of similarities and I love to eat them both.     NL Na de prachtige Gracia Festival kregen onze buikjes het h...

EN And my meeting up with my blogger friends ‘ The Cat You and Us ’ continues! After breakfast and my first time riding the subway of Barcelona , Damaris and Dani took me to an annual neighbourhood festival called the ‘Gracia Festival’. I have never been to this festivity before but hearing the name made me pretty excited. The Gracia Festival is a street festival where people in this neighbourhood dress their up street according to a theme and the best decorated street wins a prize! One of the important requirements for decoration is using recycled materials, a requirement that I sure like and support! I must say, the people of Gracia sure have explosive creative ideas! The streets were super colourful, inspiring and all street has their own uniqueness. Clearly me and The Cat You and Us have our favourite street and no surprisingly it’s Japanese-themed. Scroll down to see it!     NL En mijn ontmoeting met mijn blogvrien...
