Review: Tickets
Welcome…to the circus! After El Bulli closed its doors in 2011, the Adria brothers opened up a flurry of new restaurants in Barcelona, the most notable being Tickets, an innovative tapas bar that’s truly pushing the boundaries on molecular gastronomy. Along with being the most avant-garde tapas place in town, Tickets is also known for its notoriously difficult reservation system. Online reservations open up exactly 60 days in advance at midnight Barcelona (BCN) time, and the website often crashes even if you go on the dot. But don’t lose hope if you’re unsuccessful in placing an online reservation – you can call the restaurant the day of to find out if there were any last minute cancellations for that day. Do note that the restaurant is closed on Sundays and Mondays, so make sure to plan accordingly.
