In a narrow street in the neighbourhood of Horta there's a door with a flowering plum tree in front of it that opens onto a treasure of a bodega, an institution in Horta for more than 80 years: Bodega Massana. A dozen barrels of wines (including uncommon varieties) with taps welcome you from behind the bar, where the staff seem to always be serving vermouths and draught beers, spicy escargot, 'botifarra' sausages with beans and all kinds of splendid delicacies at affordable prices. They have a small outdoor area for letting a bit of fresh air inside or for smoking, which gets quite popular at times. If you go to Bodega Massana, you'll go back.
