Wondering about how to Support Small Businesses in Barcelona during the COVID-19 outbreak? The brains behind the All Those pop-up food markets have come up with a list of small shops and producers that are staying open and need your custom! Broken down by neighbourhood. (The list has been compiled by them and I am only republishing in English.)
Meanwhile, despite being crippled by the sudden shut down to the food and hospitality sector is coming together, using their own initiative to do what they do best – feed people. An inspiring article in the Comer section of La Vanguardia has more on this.
Shout out to Health Warriors Barcelona, Malaga & Sitges. And Food 4 Heroes (Fuck Coronavirus indeed!) While we are out on our balconies clapping our hands for the medical community on the frontline, they are delivering meals that restaurants are donating.
