• Gastronomy This is the restaurant in Barcelona that has seduced Bruce Springsteen, Spielberg and the Obamas

Little by little new details are becoming known about the stay in Barcelona that has surrounded the two concerts starring Bruce Springsteen to open his European tour. A musical event of the first row that has served the companions of the American musician to tour the city and its surroundings. Some well-known companions: filmmaker Steven Spielberg and his partner, and the marriage formed by Barack and Michelle Obama.

The chef Jordi Cruz has revealed in the afternoon of this Sunday that he has cooked for them. He has done so with a photo shared on Instagram in which they appear in the foreground, seated, Springsteen and Spielberg. Among the people standing behind them are Michelle Obama and actress Kate Capshaw, Spielberg's partner. Around him, part of the ABAC Lounge team, a luxury hotel and restaurant located in the Tibidabo area.

In his message, Cruz thanks them for the possibility of having cooked for them, for which he expresses his "absolute admiration." The former president of the United States, who had left earlier for Zurich (Switzerland) to give a lecture there, was not present at this meeting.

Although they were staying at El Gran Hotel La Florida, a 5-star luxury establishment, visitors have not stopped moving guided by cultural interest and high gastronomy. The group already visited last Thursday, a day before the first concert of 'The Boss', the restaurant Amar, located in the Palace Hotel in Barcelona. There they gave a tribute of seafood and fish. As it has transpired, they chose it on the recommendation of chef José Andrés.

On Friday, the Obamas and Spielbergs visited the Moco Museum and the Sagrada Familia, and ate at Martinez's restaurant, before closing the day at Springsteen's first concert. On Saturday the four visited the abbey of Montserrat and this Sunday, already in the absence of Barack, they toured the Picasso Museum.
