    I noticed many foreigners think croquetas have potato inside, but they do not: it´s a thick bechamel sauce, where you add some kind of protein afterwards. Most popular croquetas have berian ham, or cod, chicken, tuna, mushrooms, etc.
    Some people say good croquetas are the true thermometer of a restaurant: if they´re actually good, the rest of the food will be... ;)
    Cheers!

    Heading to Barcelona next month and going to make it easy by following your steps. 2 questions. Is there a quicker way to get into La Sagrada Familia and second. I didn’t see a space for tips on your restaurant check. Is tips/gratuities customary in Barcelona?

    • @ritzytravelguide
      @ritzytravelguide  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi, the Sagrada Familia does have a fast pass ticket available onlinefor pre purchase
      Concerning tipping, it is very low key in Spain, and indeed across Europe. Depending on the outlet it is added in automatically, or voluntary on your part. 15% should be fine.

    Great video but first bar you're eating pinxos not tapas, similar but from basque region.

    • @ritzytravelguide
      @ritzytravelguide  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, yes indeed. I think I mentioned they were Pinchos!

    • @ritzytravelguide
      @ritzytravelguide  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi, generally in Spain service is added to the bill, automatically. When it's not, 15% is considered quite fair

      Hi there, it's a Kipling bag. She's very pleased with it. Bought it about 2 years ago.
      There could be other brands that have similar features.
