Ferran Adrià Opens New Tapas Bar in Barcelona

Good news for all lovers of Spanish food, well those with cash in their wallets that is, as Ferran Adrià, the master chef of El Bulli, which has been voted Best Restaurant in the World five times, opened a tapas bar in Barcelona yesterday.
The menu at the new establishment, in the Paralelo district of the Catalan capital, boasts dishes similar to those the Spanish chef served at his restaurant on the Costa Brava, including crèpe of Peking duck and marshmallow clouds of lime and cocoa.
But whereas a four-hour banquet of 47 dishes at El Bulli might cost €500 (£415) for two, excluding wine, a meal at 41 Degrees is within reach of those of more modest means. The marshmallow clouds, for instance, will set you back €8.40 (£7), while the crèpe costs €25.50. 
The restaurant doesn’t accept reservations.
Apparently the Adrià brothers, Ferran and Albert, plan to open a sit-down tapas restaurant near by next month. It will be called Tickets, will cater for 50 diners at a time and will take reservations.
