Pulling in our Belts

Pulling in our belts is what we're trying to do now (both metaphorically and literally) after three weeks of very good eating and drinking in Brasil, followed by a week of good-old-British-comfort-eating in London. Now, although we're absolutely thrilled by this new non-smoking law which kicked in on 2nd January, it does mean that too many little places like this are now big temptations to us all year round! This is the first time we've lived through a changeover from smoking to non-smoking and are amazed by the transformation! Fragments Cafe/bar/restaurant sits on a little plaza 10 minutes walk from our house and we've only had dinner there once, but the beef was up there with the best we'd tasted in Barcelona. The atmosphere is more French bistro than Spanish actually. I think we should try to avoid this square for a while now if we go for a walk before dinner!
