Bravo – W Barcelona

Taming of the beasts was now on the way as we headed to  Bravo, celebrity Chef Carles Abellan’s restaurant in the W.  We met up with Chef Jakob and received the royal treatment from Chef de cuisine Luis, at Bravo after introductions were made.  This welcomed lunch was spectacular.  As we sat down to indulge, the tapas started to appear, the wine flowed and we stopped when the food stopped.  Chef Luis was terrific as he only wanted to know if we were hungry – – wrong question to ask a bottomless pit.

This was truly an incredible start in Barcelona, as we had the sheer pleasure of sitting back and letting the kitchen send out whatever they desired.  And yes we had dinner in mind as the courses kept flowing.
