During my time in Barcelona I have been staying with an old friend Maia and her boyfriend Andrea. Andrea works for a company called 'EatWith' Its basically a hospitality organisation where people eat dinner with other guests, mostly locals, who they have never met, at a home with someone who they have also never met; yet, by the end of the night everyone is friends. Each night in Barcelona I have experienced this and its nothing short of a fantastic experience. The food has been amazing and I've met some truly wonderful people.
During these days I have experienced some of the best food I have ever eaten also. Most notably, the food that was served on this table above. A five course meal that I feel I wouldn't be able to afford in a restaurant. The company was great too and I feel I've made some real friends. You can check out this guys cooking here http://www.pirate-cooking.com/ If your ever in Barcelona and want to eat some serious food and meet some genuine people I would certainly recommend him.
But there is loads to choose from. Each night I have eaten with different hosts, and with the company and the food being different each night, this is one of the best things about the organisation. I feel I have being slightly spoiled with the fare that I've eaten during my stay here. Its a young company and they have just started out in England also. So if you like cooking for people and making new friends or fancy a night out eating with new people I would certainly recommend to give it a go http://www.eatwith.com/
