Search for La Chinata and you’ll find it’s a cosmetics brand famous in Barcelona, the kind local guides swear by. I’d heard a rumor that an acquaintance I’ve known for years had started importing it to Korea himself, and now he’s even opened a cafe. Here’s hoping it’s a huge hit!

Inside
There are simple desserts and drinks, and coffee too. They even sell Spanish beer.

The cafe has a nice vibe too.
Food products
They’re about to start importing food products too, olive oil among them, and I’m really looking forward to that.
