whatamieating

I hope you have a wonderful time. I recommend whatamieating.com (or whatamieating.mobi which works well on smartphones) as a decent dictionary of Spanish foods, with descriptions of dishes. Paella, of course, is a famous dish of Barcelona but if you can get fideuà this is even better, but more commonly found slightly further south in Valencia (the home of paella). Travel safely.

This is my first ever posting on e-gullet, so please forgive me if I do things wrong. There is a French pastry caleld a 'bugne' produced in the Lyonnais. You can find a description at http://www.whatamieating.com/bugne.html There is also something called a 'cavagnat'. It is a traditional Easter pastry from Menton in Provence, like a small basket containing a single hard boiled egg in its shell. You can see details here: http://fr.novopress.info/16236/gastronomie-identitaire-u-campanile-la-brioche-pascale-corse/ That's all I can think of for the moment. I've really enjoyed reading about all these pastries from around the world.
