HAPPENINGS
Barca Wonderland, Holiday Pop-Up
Barca Wonderland, holiday pop-up is back!
Sip something merry. Get into the spirit with the Sleigh All Day (tequila, blood orange, spiced cranberry), a Gingerbread Espresso Martini, a warm Fireside Old Fashioned with hot apple cider, or the North Pole Hot Chocolate spiked with single barrel rum. Bringing a crowd? Order the Shot Tree. Not drinking? Rudolf’s Spritz and Frosty’s Meltdown bring all the cheer, zero proof.
Snack like an elf. Share the Barca Fondue for two, loaded with mahón and gruyère, crispy patatas, chistorra sausage, and garlic ciabatta. Graze on pintxos like warm Valdeón toast with orange-aleppo honey or our “steak frites” with beef tenderloin. Then go all in on dessert: Bûche de Noël, peppermint tres leches, or fresh baked cookies with eggnog custard (add a pour of Four Roses, we won’t tell Santa).
