Private Walking Tour and Dinner in Barcelona's Jewish Quarter

A History Of Jewish Gastronomy In The Oldest House In Barcelona

Brunch in the heart of the old Jewish Quarter

Celebrate Shabbat in an ancient palace in Barcelona in the heart of the Call, the Medieval Jewish Quarter, and discover traditional Jewish culture, food, and wine.

Shabbat is an important day in Judaism, every Friday night families and friends gather to celebrate this special day. We like to see it as a moment of stillness to our hectic life, a break in the week. It is a moment of reunion, the day that we allow ourselves to simply be present and in joy and what better way than doing it in community, around a table tasting our gastronomy full of memories and identity.

• Enjoy a Jewish culinary festival featuring all of the traditional recipes enjoyed for Shabbat
• Aperitif and wine are included
• Casa Adret stands in what was once the heart of the Jewish Quarter and has become a symbol of the new face of the old Call. Entering its walls is a shortcut to the Middle Ages!
• Communal dining for 4 to 14 people
• Monica and Eva have rave reviews on TripAdvisor!

About your host, Monica & Eva: We are Monica and Eva, also known as Toldot Barcelona. We come from very different backgrounds and corners of the globe, but our journey is intertwined through food. Toldot means chronicle in Hebrew, and what we wish to do is bring food, history, heritage and different chronicles to the table.



Shabbat dinner in the old Jewish Quarter of Barcelona

Braided bread made specially for Shabbat. We make it every friday ourselves.

Challah

In our grandmother´s house there were always big jars of pickles. So many colours and a unique flavour. It was wonderful to see and to eat. We want to share this with you. 

Pickled vegetables

Also called Jewish penicillin, the iconic chicken soup! Served on nearly every Jewish holiday and typical on Shabbat.


Chicken soup

What is a Jewish table if we don´t have any dipping sauces or purées to have a festival in our plates? We will offer you different styles from our special hummus, beats with yogurt or bazerjan.

Dipping sauces or purées 

Taking the best of seasonal produce, we'll prepare a mix of vegetables and salads with a special touch.

Seasonal salads and vegetables.

Imagine arriving to  El Call, the old Jewish quarter, from crowded streets and narrow lanes, and you enter two enormous wooden doors and a patio that holds the XIII remains of the original house. This four floor, single standing building, with a renovation by award winning architects, reaches to the sky and hosts original stones, walls and two rooftop terraces. Now cultural space and centre of research called Casa Adret, you literally eat with history as we weave the history of the old Jewish quarter and explore Jewish food traditions.  

Monica, from Mexico City, was raised in a Syrian Jewish family, and Eva, from Melbourne Australia, has Askenazi Polish heritage and Irish roots. Together, we are Toldot Barcelona. Though we from very different backgrounds, different corners of the globe,  our journey has been intertwined through food. Food has always been part of our lives, for us food is memory, food is experience, food is heritage, food is story. We explore a celebration of family flavours and traditions and want to share them with you!


We create a ‘festival table’, abundant salads, salsas, dips, artisan breads, and dishes that hold a personal history while paying homage to the incredible history of Casa Adret and the beautiful local produce here in Barcelona. We want to create an experience where you can share your stories and we can tell ours. We believe that worlds can come closer by eating at the same table and sharing flavours!
