Japoneses en Barcelona

Lo cierto es que se trata de un tema tan, tan machacado por todo el mundo, que aburre un poco, la verdad. Pero también es verdad que al final acudimos a este tipo de restaurantes con cierta frecuencia, por lo que más vale andar prevenidos.

Vaya por delante que no soy ninguna experta. A los restaurantes japoneses no voy a hacer estudios ni sociológicos ni gastronómicos; simplemente voy, como mi arrocico, mis udon y mi sashimi, y para casa. Por eso, entre los restaurantes barceloneses que voy a recomendar, es más que posible que aparezca un chino "remozado". Lo siento, pero como no sé japonés, no he estado en japón e, insisto, no soy ni mucho menos una experta, tendréis que conformaros con esto.

En algún momento de la historia ya se comentó en este blog la existencia del Rojo y del Fusion Sushi Club.

Bueno, pues ahora, en el capítulo de despropósitos hemos de empezar por el KIBUKA. La ventaja es que está en Gràcia, que, de momento, es mi barrio; en concreto en la calle Goya. La desventaja es que, no, no vas a cenar en él un sábado; ni un viernes; ni ninguna víspera de fiesta. Mi naturaleza perezosa me ha impedido ir a ese lugar antes de las 21 horas los viernes y los sábados, así que el noventa por ciento de las veces que he acudido a este lugar, horrorizada ante la marabunta de la puerta, me he visto obligada a seguir mi camino hasta Gran de Gràcia y tomarme un estupendo frankfurt de tres euros. Sólo en una ocasión he conseguido deleitarme con los manjares del Kibuka; y el éxtasis no fue tal. Nada excepcional en lo que a pescado se refiere. En cuanto al servicio, pienso que debí tener muy mala suerte, porque: a) tardaron un mucho en atendernos y servirnos; b) los platos fueron literalmente tirados sobre la mesa c) la sonrisa no se estila.

Menos mal que, también en los alrededores de Gràcia está el Nihon Sakari (Girona, 88). No será maravilloso, ni super cool, ni nadie va disfrazado; y es cierto que la foto del Golden Gate del fondo, que ocupa toda la pared, es un elemento de atrezzo, cuando menos, singular. Pero el sashimi es el más fresco que he probado en Barcelona a un precio razonable y, francamente, al sashimi lo único que se le puede pedir es que esté bien cortado y fresco. Y de postre, yo que soy una laminera, mochi. Este restaurante sale un poco más caro que los japoneses "de carril", bufet libre, etc, pero realmente merece la pena.

A otro nivel, y para otros momentos, en la Plaça de la Revolució se encuentra el Maguroya (Ramón y Cajal 32). Es un take away que, parece ser, regenta una japonesa. Lo cierto es que la mitad de las veces me ha atendido un "barceloní". No es maravilloso, ni mucho menos, pero se deja comer bastante bien, y para quedarte en casa una noche, o invitar al alguien a cenar, pues es muy socorrido.

Otro día os hablaré del japonés que visitamos en Helsinki. Pero Helsinki y sus restaurantes requieren un capítulo aparte.

Once upon a time air travel was a great deal simpler than it is today. You called one of a few airlines that flew from your airport, the agent would tell you what flights were available for a given time, and you booked the one you wanted. Airports were always bustling places, especially during the holidays, but as long as you gave yourself adequate time, the process was usually the same. You would check your bags, go through the x-ray machine, get your boarding pass, and wait patiently at the appropriate gate. Once you got on the plane you ate the snack or meal that came with your flight and watched a movie.

In recent years travel by plane has become significantly more complicated. There are so many different configurations for flights and types of fares. Dire economic circumstances have caused airlines to raise rates and charge extra fees for everything from baggage to blankets. There are complex rules about what you can and cannot carry in your luggage. It can be very difficult to determine whether you are getting the best deal or the best services when you buy an airline ticket. The internet makes the navigation of airlines, airports, and flight itineraries easier, but, even so, be prepared to do some research if you want to find a flight at the best price.

Here is something up front that might save you time and money right off the bat. If you are traveling within the United States mainland, always look at Southwest Airlines first. Southwest is almost always the best deal you will find. However, Southwest itineraries do not appear on the major travel websites, so always go directly to the airline's website for information. Plug in your travel plans, and you will get a list of all the flights that are available. Southwest typically charges more reasonable prices than other airlines, and there are no hidden fees. The price you see is the price you get although tax and the government fee that is attached to all flights does apply. For lower prices than you can probably get anywhere else look at the "web only" fares, but keep in mind that these fares are not refundable.

At another level, and other moments in the Plaça is the Maguroya. It is a take away that, it seems, runs a Japanese. The truth is that half of the time they have attended for.It is wonderful, much less, but leaves enough to eat well and stay home for a night, or invite someone to dinner, it was very handy.

A Japanese restaurants he will not make studies or sociological or dining, just he like my rice, my udon and my sashimi, and homework. Therefore, among the restaurants in Barcelona that he recommend, is that China may see a refurbished.
