Via Veneto – Barcelona

This Michelin one-star is an experience you do not want to miss when in Barcelona.  For those of you desiring refinement at its best, Via Veneto will not let you down.  The atmosphere is one of studied and gratifying maturation.  This is where class and sophistication are not compromised and those of us who seek out these scarce commodities can take refuge in knowing they will be at your fingertips, while enjoying all the grandeur this historic dining destination offers.

I thoroughly enjoyed the well-mannered and impeccably dressed waitstaff as their presence only enhanced the experience as they help set the tone of precision and tradition.  When a distinguished level of etiquette is acknowledged and validated – – seamless symmetry is perfected. This was our experience!!!

By the way, the traditional duck press is the most incredible extraction of flavors I’ve yet to experience.  Do the duck….it’s a must!!!!

Via Veneto is definitely a favorite of mine.  There’s something to be said for tradition, especially when the standards are high, the environment is welcoming and the personalities are personal, yet professional.  An experience that is a must repeat.

Bravo!!!!
