Madrid, I Adore Thee

A long overdue return to Madrid last week. Still such a vibrant, colourful and welcoming capital city.

The food was even more spectacular than I remembered. I would highly recommend the ‘bocata de calamares’ (squid baguette) (and paella!) at El Brilliante.

The ‘pollo asado’ (roast chicken) at the Casa Mingo.

And, head and shoulders above even El Brilliante and Casa Mingo, the incredible, incredible (did I say incredible?) Celso y Manolo.

In terms of leisure, the rooftop bar on the top of the Circulo de Bellas Artes is super cool with panoramic views of the city.

And for culture, no trip to Madrid would be complete without a visit to the glorious Prado Museum.

Can’t wait to go back for a longer period of time!

¡Viva Madrid!
