A few days in Barcelona-

[rachrose]

My parents are travelling to Europe for a few weeks and will visit Barcelona for about 5 days. I am looking for recommendations for restuarants on the "must visit" list. While not overly budget conscious, they are not looking to break the bank either. They want to really experience the food and culture of Barcelona.

Barcelona has been covered extensively on this board. Do a search and you will find tons of recommendations: tapas/pintxos, traditional to modern Catalan cooking, moderate to expensive, atmospheric hole in the wall to modern designer decor. You will have no problem finding the "must visit" since a group of places keep reappearing. If you can be more specific about your parents preference regarding to food, ambience, etc., you'll get some excellent responses.
