Eat My Trip, Brunch in Eixample

27th September 2018 Leave a Comment


Eat My Trip offers Brunch in Eixample. Of all the food categories out there, brunch, in particular, has an affinity with Instagram. There is something inexplicably mesmerizing about a pert orange yolk being pierced and oozing out, lava-like.

A green waffle with egg, Brunch in Eixample Wild and wacky brunch dishes like green waffles with eggs at Eat My Trip Brunch in Eixample

The breakfast bowls, like miniature edible Japanese rock gardens. Do you eat delicately, a spoonful with shaggy coconut another with pumpkin seeds or do you unceremoniously muddle the lot into a sloppy lumpy mess? A tower of pancakes. The boxy depressions of waffles. They are green here, coloured with Matcha, topped with that egg, a lacquered rasher of bacon and a toussle of rocket.

Drink at Eat My Trip Brunch in EixampleEat My Trip is known for striking cakes and cheesecakes inspired by Genia’s travels around the world.  

Eat My Trip – so called because the menu is made up of inspirations from Genia’s (the young owner’s) travels – is visually led. That tower of pancakes? At Eat My Trip you can have yours with cream, chocolate sauce, chocolate chips, fruit and wearing an upturned ice cream cone, placed jauntily to the side. They do a blue-hued cheesecake coloured with spirulina. Even the most pedestrian of breakfast plates are transformed into off the wall creations full of vivid colours and unusual combinations. If Willy Wonka had a granddaughter and that granddaughter opened up a brunch place it would probably be a lot like Eat My Trip. And Brunch in Eixample is much needed.

Eat My Trip seen from the outside Genia started off making show-stopping American style cakes: high, their crowns loaded with confectionary or decoration, often with a distinctive drip around the edges – before getting into the brunch scene. (You should have a look at her Cake Gallery on Facebook for some jaw-dropping designs.) She was joined by Ksenia and together the two are bringing their distinctive visual style to the can’t-get-enough-of-brunch public.

Wall Paper at Eat My Trip There is not one person tucking into their food at Eat My Trip without snapping a photo first. The median age of the customers is young, female with a tendency to wear their hair long and straight. They’ve probably come angling for a high volume Instagram shot and ended up enjoying it more than they expected.

Because Genia & Ksenia approach everything on the menu with seriousness and dedication. And an extra dose of fun.

Some places feel like they’ve been frozen in tim Some places feel like they’ve been frozen in time—in the best way possible. 🪑🍽️

At Cal Pau Xich, it’s marble tabletops, bentwood chairs, Estrella bottles next to vintage motorbikes, and mirrors that whisper stories of another era.

The food? Honest and generous. Creamy mushroom lasagna. Chargrilled lamb chops with padron peppers. A silky flan with a dollop of cream that tastes like someone’s abuela still works the kitchen.

A proper Catalan gem that doesn’t fuss, just feeds you well.

Minimalist, confident, and just the right kind of cool. The kind of place where the coffee’s excellent, the croissants are glossy, and yes — they serve an iced coffee with olive oil.
@holacoffee 

Design-led, barista-driven, and packed to the rafters with oat milk. A must if you like your coffee with a bit of bite and a lot of style.

When the meze arrives at Ali Ocakbaşı, it’s no When the meze arrives at Ali Ocakbaşı, it’s not a starter—it’s a ceremony. Smoky aubergine, creamy yogurt, grilled meats kissed by fire, and the crispiest künefe in Barcelona.

This isn’t just dinner. It’s a full-on Anatolian experience 🇹🇷✨

@casajuliomadrid : a crimson-clad portal to proper @casajuliomadrid : a crimson-clad portal to proper old-school Madrid.
Tomato salad dripping in oil, oversized croquetas, garlicky chistorra with golden potatoes, a cold caña, and just enough chaos behind the bar to feel alive.
No fusion. No foam. Just flavor.

A feast for the senses curated by Erika Lust at @la_culturehouse – where art, desire, and food meet in bold, provocative beauty. From the strawberry and elderflower bites to the unapologetically decadent “Vagina Cake” by @dontpanikitsveganik, every detail was a celebration of taste, form, and freedom.

📍Batea Barcelona — Gran Via, 605 Michelin 202 📍Batea Barcelona — Gran Via, 605
Michelin 2025 recommended and absolutely deserved.

Between the Betanzos tortilla drowning in prawn head jus and the delicately plated ceviche, Batea balances tradition with a polished, confident creativity. It’s seafood-forward but far from predictable.

Highlights:
🦐 Tortilla with prawns
🥒 Flawless ceviche
🥖 Bread + algae butter = don’t skip it
🌿 Falafel of algae & bluefin tuna (!)

Their design nods to the nostalgic brasseries of old, but this is very much Barcelona now. Grab a table. Order generously.

Contracorrent Bistró has a new (ish) spot in Grà Contracorrent Bistró has a new (ish) spot in Gràcia. A melding of Catalan and Italian flavours and a focus on ingredients. As highlighted by the row of vines from the family estate that are suspended from the ceiling. 
The choice is between two tasting menus. Of course my friend and I selected the largest one!
A flurry of small plates and bowls ensued. Just the way I like it, lots of variety but I didn’t have to waddle out of there. 
The warm and knowledgeable service was the cherry on top.

I feel like the one coffee shop per block thing ha I feel like the one coffee shop per block thing has been done ad nauseam - instead I would like to petition for one cheese shop per block. Found this darling one on the corner from one of my favourite restaurants.
What about you? Do you think we have reached peak coffee shop saturation in the city?
