Traditionally, gastronomy in Barcelona is renowned for the variety of restaurants and bars that offer the best food to share. One of the most special restaurants located in Barceloneta is Pasa Tapas, a privileged place, close to the beach where we can share one of the best calcotadas in the company of our friends and family.

What are the tights?

Los Calçots are one of the most popular dishes in typical Barcelona cuisine during the coldest months of the year. Although it should be said that it is a food more associated with the rural world than with the city. It will be, above all, because these long and tender chives need to be burned in a wood fire (wrapped in newspaper) to give them their consistency and, above all, their delicious flavor between sweet and smoky.

But a good calçot would be nothing without the sauce in which it is dipped: romesco made from roasted tomatoes and garlic, bread, dried red peppers, almonds and hazelnuts, olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper.
