Food Scene

This is a very cozy little restaurant and they are quite friendly. Try the octopus or eggplant with honey.

I highly recommend this old gem of a restaurant. It is an institution in Madrid. Arrive early (13:30) or you´ll wait a long time to eat. Must order chicken, chorizo, salad and sweet cider (sidra dulce). Cabrales here are amazing too. You can combine this with a visit to the Campo de Moro, which is a LOVELY relatively unknown park behind the Sabatini Gradens and Palace.

Craving paella? Here is a great choice. Order with ali oli de ajos tiernos (young garlic alioli).

This is a terrific little place with lots of history. Hands down, the best croquetas in Madrid. 8 varieties of croquetas to choose from! If you´re in the mood for beer and tapas, this is your place!

Arts & Culture

Excellent museum, small enough to enjoy in a couple of hours, packed with very important art. Highly recommended! Can combine with a trip to Retiro Park and paella for lunch (see above rec)
