Sor Rita<\/h2>\n

This eclectic bar<\/strong> in the Gothic quarter of Barcelona<\/a><\/strong> boasts retro-kitsch decorations packed full of quirky pieces. High heels are stuck to the wall, underwear hangs from the ceiling, a collection of Barbies are positioned in Kama Sutra poses and religious images are mixed with pop culture icons such as James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, and Audrey Hepburn.\u00a0The name of the bar<\/strong> gives it away with a play on words in Spanish: \u201cSor Rita<\/strong>\u201d meaning Sister Rita which also sounds like \u201czorrita\u201d meaning little slut. This perfectly sums up the bar\u2019s mix of religious references with sinful pleasures.<\/p>\n

As soon as you enter the bar<\/strong> you know you\u2019re in for a fun night<\/strong> as you\u2019re met with a rather unusual shrine. Think garish leopard prints and brightly painted walls complete with a wall of shame showing the sinners of the 20th<\/sup> century. The spirit of the bar<\/strong> continues with its music, playing classics such as Boney M, Abba, Marisol and Raffaela Carra. As well as serving fab cocktails<\/strong> to complete the whole package for a perfect night out.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
