Zizinia de les Flors Barcelona

Food autonomy concept

Rafael from Barcelona

""Zizinia de les Flors" in Barcelona is founded on food autonomy and is by far one of the most interesting restaurant concepts I have ever visited..."

Zizinia de les Flors is by far one of the most interesting restaurant concepts I have ever visited. It uses the concept of 100% food autonomy, which means: access for all people to a sufficient quantity of quality food and to food resources at a reasonable cost; power in the form of the ability to produce or purchase, with full dignity, a variety of healthy foods that are also to our taste; respect for nature, the environment, communities, neighbourhoods and lifestyles. And finally, action that involves implementing a variety of methods, both collectively and individually, towards the achievement of real food autonomy. It also implies empowerment and self-reliance in a spirit of respect for others and your surroundings.

The couple that runs the place is a nice Jordanian / English wife and husband who lived in England only to later come to Barcelona, and literally everything you eat there is made by them. As you enter the place, you will probably see bags of flour and huge containers with all kinds of ferments. The menu is short, varying with season and availability; the prices are surprisingly low (food autonomy) and don't go looking for luxury, but for a real class of how the world can be improved (especially nowadays with environmental issues).

Try their falafel pita (I dare say Barcelona's best)! And don't miss the opportunity to try everything you can.

About me I am somebody who is in love with everything related to gastronomy and different cultures. That said, I have specialized myself in beer and coffee. After some courses in barismo, coffee roasting and becoming a beer sommelier, I can get into this world with more information in order to enjoy it to the most. Although I do everything as a hobby, I hope it can soon become my daily job. After moving to Barcelona, I was able to create BCNCOFFEEGUIDE, which has everything you need when searching for specialty coffee, with the most complete map of spots of the city! &...

Bar with tropical vibes

"El Tigre" is a lovely terrace with tropical vibes in Barcelona! It got me hooked from the 1st time! My favorite here is the pomada, a refreshing gin-lemonade...

Parallelo

Artisanal street gelato!

"Parallelo" gelato is my absolute favourite in Barcelona. Totally worth the 2.5-km walk there. My favorite is the cream-peanut-dulce de leche ice cream!
