Rounding a downtown street corner...and meeting Ohla Boutique Bar





"Rounding a downtown street corner near Passeig de Gracia, a menu caught my attention. Gastronomic was the key word. Fresh take on Spanish tapas it was delivering. The meal was fantastic, amazing food porn picture worthy, and quite affordable.

As I was exiting the lobby, I saw the edge of a bar. Tucked away to the right of the concierge desk, is a bar ran by one Max La Rocca. Black, glass, simple quadrilateral wood, highlight this sophisticated bar. Read the menu and you know you're in good hands. Quotes from the Savory Cocktail books, award winning drink concoctions (citations included), both simple and inventive ingredient combinations.

This video was shot by third time there. I and 3 other friends rushed from Pobleneu at 1:37am in a taxi to make it there by 2am. We made it, had two amazing drinks each, edible negroni shots, and this amazing smoke infused shot. There was dancing to the Palmetto Bug Stompers, there were hat tricks performed, and we closed Ohla Bar that night!"

Drink Suggestions:
El Conde (a twist on the classic Negroni)
Madama Baudelaire (a wonderful absinthe based drink)
The gold dusted mojito.

Just go crazy there
