Tucked away in the bustling Ciutat Vella, Mama Gorda is a tiny spot that dishes out happiness one sandwich at a time. With just three tables and a small bar, this place is intimate but packs a punch.
The menu is simple yet exciting, featuring six sandwiches plus a seasonal special. Meat, fish, or vegetarian, there's something for everyone. Imagine biting into a brioche bun filled with karaage pork belly, kimchi, fennel, mint, and garlic mayo—mouthwatering, right?
The starters are equally enticing, ensuring a full-flavoured experience from beginning to end. The menu changes with the seasons, so there's always something new to try. Best of all, you can savour an appetizer, a sandwich, and a drink for under €20.
In a neighbourhood known for its vibrant atmosphere, Mama Gorda fits right in. It’s the perfect spot to refuel and soak up the local vibe without breaking the bank.
