lunch by the Mediterrean Sea



as told by our spanish friends, people in Barcelona are expected to have lunch at a later time till...dinner time. so in order to get a table, it's a good idea to get yourself into the restaurant before the crowd started to gather, mostly after two in the afternoon.

paella is still by far one of the best dishes we had, and we had the chance to try out the seafood soup as well, which tasted exceedingly fresh.


though some people might have a preconception that the locals tend to attend matters in a laid back, relaxed manners, during our brief stay at this restaurant, all the waiters were extremely attentive, and were fast in bringing out the dishes. while it's obvious that the quicker a table of guests finished their meals, the more business they could make each day, but you can tell thru their expressions, laughters, interaction with the customers, and well welcoming gestures, that they are truly enjoying their jobs.
isn't it what a job ought to be about?
will try to dig out the name of this restaurant some later time...
