I had the great good fortune of visiting these wonderful places last year. Ah, the architecture, the history, the art, the food...the menus.
I missed Rape Fisherman's style, where was I that day??  Does soup come with that? 
The one that stands out in my mind (on Las Ramblas) was Cod with Garlic Gloves, I guess that would go well with the feet of the boneless animal and trunk of hake

Well, the French version was missing; I think all of us should be able to enjoy such “best of machine translation”.
I’ve been playing for a while, and working hard to get a satisfactory version of your message in French. (hope you don’t mind if the French version wins the prize!)
For sure, trilingual glossary is now OK! We should go to the bar a ask for a free “banane masculine craquante” and sell this glossary for sure.
“fréquentent un petit restuarant dans la région de Raval de Barcelone, à l'occasion impaire que je croise le Ramblas Car il s'est produit, nous étions un grand groupe et ainsi avons obtenu un mélange des menus d'es et d'en (avant que nous toujours avons eu à l'es ceux seulement).... L'en était si bizarre que nous ayons pensé réellement que c'était....eventually délibéré que nous avons figuré hors de celui le menu avait été machine traduit, avec les résultats hilares qui nous ont maintenus dans les points pendant une bonne heure, pendant que nous continuions à retourner et à trouver plus d'hurleurs.... “
Entrantes arabes/cubanos, etc = Débutants arabes/cubains, etc
Baba ganugh = = Baba ganugh
Aráis de Queso = Vous labourez de Fromage
Pan Pita relleno con carne = Pain Pita rempli avec viande
Table de Quesos = Table de Fromages
Papa rellena = Pape remplit = avez bourré le pape
Yuca con Mojo = Yucca avec je Mouille
Platano Macho Crujiente = Banane Masculine Craquante
Picadillo a la habanera = Hachis à ce qui est habanera
