 Saturday morning saw us in Barcelona for a walking food tour which started at a 'granja' - a small cafe-style place where locals have breakfast (one of the five meals a day).  This particular one invented 'cacaolat ' - chocolate milk,  in 1931.  They still use the same receipt and label.  We found it much richer and tastier than any chocolate milk we remembered.
 Then on to a bakery still housed in their original building.

 Lots of imagination here - cakes that look like burgers ....

 and others like hats.
 They have perfected a process of surrounding a mint leaf with chocolate!  An idea whose time has come!

They weren't the only ones selling goodies, in the market there are mountains of candy.
And a strange display of things not edible.
