The slow foods movement in Barcelona has certainly been slow to get off the ground.  However, the Barcelona Rykjavic bakery collective has emerged relatively quickly, championing a much desired whole foods approach in its all-organic bread making.  Every kind of dough-based delight imaginable is conjured up behind the scenes in their onsite kitchens, delivering fresh bread raised with natural ingredients over 24 slow hours.

The nature of the project is not the only welcome aspect of Rykavik.  The fact that it’s a bakery that bakes daily bread to a standard that many other countries take for granted makes it unique in a city which isn’t exactly known for its bakers.
