Madrid has amazing food.z there I said it! Often when people think of Madrid they think of museums and art and maybe a trip to Toledo. But trust me, this city has an incredible food scene that is less touristy and more underground compared to some other cities in Spain. So, I wanted to make this Madrid food guide so that you can enjoy it like a true local!
Today I take you to 10 of my favourite places to eat 10 incredible bites. We start with the best chocolate in the city (melted from actual chocolate) at an over 100-year-old pastry shop. Then we head to a local and hidden family-run joint for the city’s top Spanish omelette (tortilla española) and a beer (caña).
Next up! Vermouth time. We nip across to the San Miguel market for a sweet red vermouth on tap just like the locals do (along with marcona almonds, campo real olives and a local skewer). Then we head to a SECRET STOP. Cloistered nuns who bake cookies in - the cookies are delicious and moreish and the experience is truly one-of-a-kind. As a friend used to say, like doing a drug deal!
OK… getting full. Next stop - jamón… ham! And the good stuff - acorn-fed jamón ibérico in a family-run ham shop. Around the corner we head to an over 100-year-old tapas bar for one of the most delicious tapas in the city - bull tail stew parcel, paired with a Rioja wine.
Next it’s Madrid’s most famous bite - the calamari sandwich. There are so many places that do this, but we head for the best one! And for more seafood, we swing around into the La Latina neighbourhood for the best bacalao in the city, served with a white wine in a place that is a true Madrid rough-and-tumble tapas bar.
And then - tapas. We swing into Casa Toni, a fantastic tapas bar that does brilliant sweetbreads - mollejas - a delicacy in many restaurants around the world, and here deliciously cooked with skill on the griddle.
And finally, dessert … we head to the most famous pastry shop in the city for the napolitana de crema. The perfect sweet end to a fabulous Madrid food tour. Siesta time!
Want to find those secret nun cookies? Head to Calle Codo (near Plaza de la Villa) and where you see the door with the sign "Venta de Dulces", ring the top bell. Hours are Mon-Fri 0930-1300 then 16.30 - 18.30.
Here's the list of where we went:
1. El Riojano
2. Cerveriz
3. Mercado San Miguel (La Hora del Vermut was the stall)
4. Nuns
5. Mercado Jamon Iberico
6. Anciano Rey de los Vinos
7. Casa Revuelta
8. La Campana
9. Casa Toni
10. La Mallorquina
WHO ARE WE? 🥝

The Mercado de San Miguel is my favorite spot along the oldest restaurant in the world almost across the street, "Casa Botín", ask for the "Cochinillo", sucklin pig right at the end of its milking period, to die for. If you want to splurge a little more, ask for "Angulas", $$$. Enjoy Madrid is a unique city full of art and gastronomy.

About day dinking, you are right. It is a cultural thing and well accepted socially. I am a spaniard and have worked abroad and I have noticed that drinking a beer or a cup of red wine with your lunch is not very common in other countries and can be seen as something inapropiate. In spain however is kind of common to have a little alcohol in daytime just accompanying your food and not ment to get you drunk. In fact. I think most spaniards are quite moderate in their alcohol consumption in comparision with other european countries, for instace England where people get often really drunk, violent and out of control.

James you've outdone yourself yet again. Super interesting on the tortilla texture! When I first started making them, they would come out exactly like that, but I wasn't so happy with the runny interior. So I started stirring the egg, potato and onion mixture when it first hit the pan, for about 20 - 30 secs or so, and as a result it comes out more cooked through, like the ones you can see in the background at Anciano Rey. Never had the mollejas - def need to try next time I'm in Madrid! Thanks for the video!!!!

@spainrevealed 6 жыл бұрын

Thanks for your comment! It’s up to personal preference how you like your tortilla consistency. One trick to help get it like this is to leave the egg and potato mixture soaking for a while before cooking.

I love Madrid and have been there a lot of times, including the last two New Year's. My favourite bar isn't on this list, la Fragua de Vulcano, named after an oil painting by Diego de Velázquezbut it is well worth a visit for the lovely, friendly atmosphere. When you see locals buying carry-out paella you know it's worth a try! My other love is a Vermut in Casa Alberto, another wonderful, old bar and a walk up to Chueca for another Vermut and pickle in Bodega Angel Sierra.

@@spainrevealed You should James, and with the original painting by Velázquez about 15 minutes away in the Prado, as well as featuring on their menu and painted on the walls outside, there is plenty to talk about. The food might not be able to meet the criterea of a typical Top Ten bar, but considering you can see Plaza Santa Ana from here, it is not an over-priced tourist trap and the free tapas are hearty and large - a small plate of pollo is not unusual. The menu features much, much more. This is a local, a friendly place where the lack of English spoken by the bar staff and my limited Spanish do not matter, if you are in the bar you are a friend. It just happens to be right in the centre of Madrid and in the centre of most of my evenings out in the city. See you there in early November if all goes to plan!

So, we are the the start of our EPIC trip to Madrid. We landed from Chicago yesterday morning at 7:30 AM. At 9:30 PM we both dropped into bed exhausted, each with 30K steps on our fit bits and bellies bursting. From James' EPIC Madrid Food Tour we hit: 1. El Riojano for chocolate and soletia 2 San Miguel Market (incredible place) for some vermouth on draft, I took the "normal", as there are actualy multiple flavors 3. Casa Revuelta for some bacalao. They also had pork rinds, which I (cuban descent) know as chicharrone and I wanna say the waiter called torresmo? As good as the bacalao. Looking forward to the next 2 weeks for more food and drink as well as hitting the amazing museums within walking distance all over the city. GREAT ADVICE SO FAR JAMES!

December 16th, 2018 Breakfast at Cafe Pans. We are still waking up early and there isn't much open. This is a chain but it's pretty good and there is NO WAY I am going to set foot in a Starbucks while I am in Madrid. Lunch at Docamar with our friends Javier and Ilka, wonderful spanish tapas bar with AMAZING paella. Seven stops from the Callao metro 5 station, getting down at Quintana. Ordered paella mixto and paella negra. Here is where things take an unexpected turn. I left my backpack (laptop and all) at Docamar and it was several hours before I realized. We were already walking up the stairs to our hostel when I stopped cold. We quickly grabbed a cab and I called, AND THEY TOLD ME THEY HAD MY BACKPACK AND HAD STORED IT FOR ME. Unbelievable and admirable honesty. A disaster averted and even MORE respect for this city. Dinner at Cardamomo Tablao Flamenco. Unbelievable show, very good tapas, and a bottle of good Riojo (14.50). Excellent way to end the day.

Hope you are enjoying your trip to Madrid. Probably the waiter called them "torreznos". However, in Andalucia (south of Spain) they are also called "chicharrones".

I love the show !..My husband And I go to Madrid every year to study flamenco guitar ( husband) and flamenco dance ( me) and then we head up to Sanlucar de Baramedas To study with a different workshop! We loved watching your videos and seeing all the places we’ve already gone to and seeing some new places we haven’t gone to eat! We would love to see you do more shows on every single region of Spain and show a clip of the different regional and flamenco dancers as part of each of the shows!? Keep up the wonderful work!🌸 You are both so sweet!!!
