It's Saturday, which means it's time for food content 🥗
Researchers researched, dug into the data and found out what kind of food is most often ordered in home delivery in different regions of the country.
According to GastroEspaña ratings and Glovo data, Spain is a land of croquettes and omelets, with some specific differences in the autonomous communities. Andalusians, for example, are very fond of serranito (a warm stuffed sandwich) and ensaladilla rusa.
🥯 Last year, Andalusians ordered more than 80,000 serranitos at home. Most of them were ordered in Seville and Algeciras. The favorite among restaurants is the family restaurant Hermanos Morales in Seville.
🥗 The second most popular dish in Andalusia is the enzaladilla russa. Last year it was ordered over 57,000 servings, 66% more than the previous year. It is most loved in Huelva and Seville. They order it at the Fonda de María Mandao restaurant.
🥘 The third favorite food is salmorejo, a cold cream soup made of tomatoes and bread. It has overtaken gazpacho, with 14,000 servings ordered at Glovo. It is especially loved in Málaga, Córdoba and Aguadulza.
🍞Sweet eaters from Andalusia are ordering torrija — sweet bread toast — for the second year. Last year, Glovo delivered 1,600 torrija.
And the final one by region:
• Madrid, Aragón, Catalonia and the Canary Islands had croquettes and potato omelet.
• In Valencia they had croquettes and paella.
• In Asturias and Castile-Leone, the most popular dish was cachopo (as well as croquettes in Asturias and black pudding in Castile-Leone), and in Cantabria, rabas (calamari in breading) and tortilla (thin flatbread).
👀 You can tell us about your favorite foods and the places where they are best cooked in the comments.

Oh, where is that so beautiful? 👀
It's in the library. It was designed by SUMA Arquitectura, and it's the third largest library in Barcelona.
It is named after Gabriel García Márquez, is located in the La Verneda neighborhood and specializes in Latin American literature. It has lots of light, comfortable areas for reading and working, and terraces outside and inside. Worth a walk around and at least come in to see it.
📍Carrer del Treball, 219, 08020

Hola! The second part of the apps for Barcelonans and Barcelonians
The Fork is somewhat similar to Barcelona Restaurants. The app shows restaurants and reviews on them, and it's easy to search for places for future dinners using filters. You can also make reservations here. A nice bonus: discounts of up to 50% and bonuses that can then be converted into pizza or tom-yam. That is, and really spend, again on food!

News digest 📅
In Málaga, small safes, in which the owners of tourist apartments put the keys for the residents, began to disappear from the walls of buildings. Residents are tired of looking at them and the authorities have decided to reduce their number. Some of the safes will remain.
A new flight destination: in summer you can fly to the archipelago of the Azores Islands. The flight will be direct and will be operated by 3 airlines.
Authorities promise by the end of next week to normalize train service on the R2 Sud Rodalies line, due to disruptions in which many people were late to many places.

A little digest 📅
Barcelona and Madrid are among the noisiest cities in the world. Most of all Spaniards (72%) are disturbed by traffic noise, 50% are annoyed by construction, and 41% by the noise of sirens. More than half have trouble sleeping, 51% have stress and 49% have headaches.
The Spanish government will spend 2.2 billion euros to combat drought in the country.
If you were planning to ride buses around town this Thursday, reschedule that venture for another day. There will be a 24-hour strike on May 18 by workers at TMB, the main operator of public transportation.
