A little can go a long way. The sample of this are the mixed sandwiches curiously called bikinis. The advantage of eating them is that you will be well satisfied, even if you have a picky appetite. In Barcelona there are different places where you can taste the best bikinis in the city, as a sample of the universality of the sandwich and the variety of ingredients and flavors.
In these sites you will find from the classic bikini to more sophisticated ones with different ingredients. Throughout Catalonia calling the mixed bikini is already a tradition that is only understood in our territory. Just as the women’s swimsuit is composed of two elements, so are the mixed ones: usually ham and cheese, but nowadays there are many more combinations.
