On my very first visit to Barcelona, I stayed at a hotel away from Las Ramblas and discovered a wonderful restaurant called "Medulio" - owned by Jose Luis Fraga. We became friends and I never missed eating there when in Barcelona and sent all my friends there as well. For my last visit and 65th birthday, I emailed him to make my usual reservation and did not hear back. I tried calling, to no avail. Frightened, wondering what happened to this restaurant, open for 25 years, I took a cab there before I left - and found the place boarded up.
I finally got an email and he also found me on Facebook. Apparently, the lease ran out and the owner chose not to renew. How horrible for him. He is living somewhere near San Sebastian now. I am just relieved to find Jose Luis again!
Caliente estará la cena, pero fríos se quedarán esperándola, y helados seguirán cuando les llegue la factura... Me gusta el tono cálido que le has dejado. Un abrazo.

Lovely light in the photo.
It's impossible to get a bad meal in Barcelona.

I would love to be sitting there hungry too. Greetings.
Hambre y supongo que un poco de frío al lado de estas estufas tan peculiares de este bar, que el frío no respeta lugares por exclusivos que sean...
Abrazos
