Title: Si tu no estas aqui

One eats really good in Madrid. Anytime. The first day we had breakfast in the hotel –not included. It was a good breakfast, but nothing new, a variety of breads, coffee or tea, several juices etc. The next day we wanted to try something different and we walked some blocks towards the Pasteleria Mallorca, Serrano [...]

A path through the jungle led us to the open air dining room of the “Shawandha”, under a huge palm roof and decorated in a Balinese – Tahitian style, where we really enjoyed our breakfasts and relaxing cocktail hours. The menu offers fusion cuisine, blending French recipes with tropical flavors, which happens to be a [...]

And we did. Hot and cold pintxos of [...]
