Special Tapas Tours for the Jamie Magazine journalists
Paul Dring, journalist, and William Meppem, photographer, came to Barcelona to prepare a story for the brand new Jamie Magazine, by the famous British chef Jamie Oliver.
I gave them 4 different Tapas Tours where we discovered all kind of venues and specialties in different areas:
On our first tour we explored the Tapas Bars of the Eixample district (around Passeig de GrĂ cia and Rambla Catalunya). The next day during lunch time we did the areas of Poblesec, Raval and Barceloneta, and for dinner we went to my favorite area: the Born section. Finally, on the morning of the last day we did the bars of the Boqueria Market and some other places in the Gothic Quarter.
By the end of their stay we were so full we couldn't eat anything else! And Paul and William had plenty of material for a great story. But we still felt we would had needed at least another 4 extra hours to cover a few more places (less centric, more out-of-the-beaten-track) that we couldn't fit in our itineraries...
Can't wait to see the next issue of the Magazine, where their story will be published. That'll be by the end of April or beggining of May. I'll keep you posted!

I'd just like to say that Marta did a great job. She was charming, knowledgeable, indefatigable and, most importantly, full of enthusiasm for what we were trying to achieve. I'd recommend her to anyone else unhesitatingly. Paul Dring, Jamie Magazine.
