Back to Escribà!

Christian Escribà finishing up a wedding cake

This week I'm with a group from Epicurean Ways.
I met them yesterday at their arrival and took them eating some tapas for lunch. Tomorrow I'm giving them a walking tour of the Old Town after they're done with their cooking class, and the following day we are going to visit Girona and we'll be having lunch in the Costa Brava.

And today, we had a great customized tour!
We started with a walk across the medieval backstreets from their hotel to La Rambla, where we spent more than one hour exploring the Boqueria Market. Then we took a bus to Escribà, where Xavi Marco invited us to have breakfast in their pâtisserie and then he showed us their showroom where we viewed some great videos of their latest projects and their history, and we also met Christian Escribà who was busy at the time finishing up a wedding cake.
I must say that it is thanks to Jane from Epicurean Ways that I discovered Escribà offers these unique backstage private tours! Thanks Jane for the contact!

Us with Christian Escribà

And after the foody part of the tour, we went another kind of masterpieces: the Sagrada Família church, by Gaudí. No need to say they loved it!
It's been a beautiful day and I'm sure tomorrow and the next we'll have also lots of fun together!

For your delight, here is another great Escribà video:
