Popular shop of sweets, cakes and chocolates in the Gothic Quarter. In operation since 1827, keeping almost the same appearance as before. A few days ago I did a similar picture here but this time I wanted to focus more on the store. If you pass in front of it, it is inevitable not to stop and watch its storefront. Its continuity is threatened after the entry of new leases in 2015.
I've been interested in photography since time ago. I like street photography, airplane photography, candid and many other.

Lovely night view of this. I love the chocolaterias - my favourite thing to buy from them were these extremely chocolately round biscuits - came in different flavours like hazelnuts - but I don't know what they are called. Shame it is under threat - Barcelona is so lucky to have all these old businesses - it would be a scandal to lose any of them.
Amazing night capture. Your night shots are so beautiful that they made me check on your camera. I think my son has bought one like it a few months ago. He has rarely used it, yet. He says he hasn't time for photography at this point in time - he is a psychiatrist and a very busy man. I will ask him to see your shots perhaps he would take up the camera again.
@boxplayer thank you very much. Those rounded things that you told they are, maybe, "berlinas". A kind of doughnut without the hole in the middle or maybe others called from french "macarons". @yaorenliu thank you very much, this shop is famous about its powder chocolate, someday i'll go for it @kt8ird thank you very much. This kind of shops makes oneself to step backward to the past. @irisn thank you very much. I get fascinated about the differents color of cakes, chocolates, etc... Like If i was a child :) @sangwann thank you very much. I'm glad about you will be so kind to show my gallery. Actually I'm busy with my work too, but I've found "relaxing" and a way to get off from daily routine, the act of take my city folding bike a take a ride through the city in the search of the picture of the day. Once you have invested on the gear and the bike is cheaper than go to gym and healthy too, for your mind, spirit and body ;)
Nice to document these attractive stores and have a book names “Nostalgia Spain”.
