Pou Nou store in El Born

Menorca has a very special and exclusive place in this district of Barcelona: its store called Reborn sells nothing else than fashion brand Menorca Pou Nou collections. For 25 years Pou Nou has committed to unite fashion and art in their creations, and to achieve that deed Pou Nou surrounded itself by artists from Menorca who implement their designs in clothing from Pou Nou. The result: author garments that reflect artistic sensibility of this firm and its distinctive Mediterranean character.

La Bascula (meaning scale in english), run by Manuele and Silvina, a very nice couple I had the chance to meet here in Barcelona...He is italian from Bologna, and she is from Argentina...and together they prepare very special dishes mixing the different traditions of their countries of origin, with a touch of spanish taste of course!!!! Mainly vegetarian dishes, and a lot of home made cakes!!
