Barcelona Shopping

[Jungla_Juana]

coming to barcelona tomorrow ...
primavera and friends' visit.

i just figured out i actually never really shopped in barcelona bfore.

anyone could recommend nice shops ? not particulary vintage ... i don't care ...

note to mods
* though not sure a lot of them are coming there very often ... *
why don't you change the title to Barcelona Shopping ?
* maybe there's a thread for Barcelona Shopping ? *

Done

Every time I'm in BCN I've to go to the Passeig del Gracia, the Chanel boutique over there is really nice, verry friendly staff!

OMG that is soo true!!! chanel madrid is the total opposite!!! i hate shopping at chanel madrid for that reason!!
I remember walking in chanel barcelona and this asian looking assistant greeted me , i din buy anything cause i couldnt find what i was looking for ....i went back two years later she remembered me...
chanel madrid, i bought from them many times( they happen to have a bigger collection than chanel barcelona)...and the sales assistants have an attitude, rude and snobbish!!!! unlike chanel barcelona...

ok on another note there is this amazing mall called "the island" its at avd diagonal 560 ( i think) super huge has lots and lots of stuff!!

Santa Eulalia, it's a lovely place, great people. You can have a great meal there too, they serve breakfasts and lunchs.

My favorite place is Furest, since I was a child, it's only menswear.

You can check out Cintia too!

thanks! santa eulalia looks great and the food..except i'm vegetarian do you know any good cafes/restaurants for vegetarians? i'm afraid that barcelona will be like every city in france..all meat and fish based

 

[marcBarna]

Yes you're pretty right, spanish gastronomy is based on that, but... take a look, you'll love this place: http://www.teresacarles.com/eng
