Colmado Quílez

Colmados - old-school grocery stores - are relics of the old way of shopping before the invasion of the supermarket. This is one of the few surviving examples in the Modernista Eixample, with floor-to-ceiling shelves stacked full of gourmet treats: local preserved funghi in cute mushroom-shaped bottles (Delicias del Bosque), and the store's own-label caviar, cava, saffron and anchovies.
