Barcelona Photoblog: Lupin Beans or Altramuces Pickled in Brine.

Lupin Beans or Altramuces Pickled in Brine.

White Lupins (Lupinus albus) or Altramuces are normally taken as a pickled snack food that accompanies beer in Spanish bars, as for example in Andalusia. It is very nutritious although I don't like it much. I've read it is rich in protein. I still think they taste bitter. Sorry for not being very talkative today.

For local travel in Barcelona I recommend TMB information (Barcelona bus and metro) Mobile App. Barcelona (link to mobile app) is not a town you want to leave. From the capital of Catalonia you can make a number of one day trips for example to Costa Brava or you can climb the Muntanya de Montserrat.

If you're looking for some entertainment, you can either go to the Salou amusement park, 100 kilometres away from Barcelona or to the town of Sitges, only 40 kilometres away and famous for its film festival and the carnival.
