Teicawey, Mexican Fast Food, Gracia

It’s getting so hot now. August in Barcelona – it’s not so much about the temperatures as it is about the humidity. It’s wet and sticky.  You think – “I couldn’t possibly eat in this heat.” What you actually mean is “I couldn’t possibly cook.”  And you don’t have to if you are in Gracia, where you have Teicawey with its fat aluminium wrapped burritos and its clusters of hot sauces boasting varying degrees of spiciness.  In the chiller cabinet there is almond milk and fresh lemonade with chia seeds swirling around. Rather uncommon here the combination of healthy and not so healthy.  Normally if you see chia then it’s likely that seitan sausages are not too far behind. Nor are the strangely coloured nut pates. Mercifully, none of that here.
