Food Scene
Very cool, Ibiza style restaurant and bar. The restaurant has a wonderful terrace and great tapa menu. There a shaded area where kids can play amongst some very low trees (very safe!). The bar has a hotdog outlet too for a cheap and quick bite. They just added a Taco Shack too - 3 tacos and a drink for 10 euros. Wonderful venue.

Our favourite hangout! Beautiful building, one block from our place. Good for breakfast, lunches or dinner. The dining menu varies from a "bikini" - a ham and cheese toastie - for the kids to a formal menu for tapas, great fish and meat dishes. Their pan con tomato is fantastic.

Getting Around
Trains to Barcelona and Sitges. Can be reached by taxi or by bus from Av D'Europa (at the end of our street). The town itself has plenty of shops, bars and restaurants. Basically a laid back, "locals" town, after the hustle of Barcelona!
