When you have spent a night dancing your ass off, you are probably not going to want to sit down to have a proper fork and knife kind of meal. The traditional foods that are sought out after partying are usually more of the portable kind. Las Ramblas is full of fast food chains such as Burger King, KFC and McDonalds’ which are open well into the early hours. But if you want something other than American food, head up in the direction of Plaça Catalunya, where will find Aromas de Istanbul for kebabs and Udon for some noodles.

Il Mercante di Venezia is one of the best restaurants in Barcelona I've ever visited, and I visited many.

Tiramisu and pizza in the middle of Barcelona... fantastic. It's not just the food, but the feeling of eatin it in that place. Something Sheakspearian, to me.
Burers in Bacoa are a different story. It's a straight, down to earth burger joint. There are several of those in Barcelona, but I recommend one, as a matter of fact

The toppings and the flavours of the burgers are surprisingly wholesome and natural, despite it being, well, burgers.
