[…] went to Madrid last year in search of tapas, paella and Rioja and I was not disappointed. I think I ate more often each day […]

Sounds like a wonderful trip. I hope you haven’t been anywhere near the bathroom scales since you got back – it might be bad news…
I am always a bit wary of Spanish food (probably unjustifiably so) because I don’t understand much of it. With me not eating any fish or seafood, there is always the risk of an unpleasant surprise. If I had an experienced guide who spoke good Spanish it would be another matter! 🙂
Wow, its really a nice place and churros are good. Wish I can get to Madrid but from my place, 15 hours flight. Hopefully I can make it.
Wow looks like such a lovely place! I’d love to visit someday after hearing all about it from you.
I’m totally with you on the Brabante beer; very yummy stuff (I first had it last summer). And I’ll be back in Madrid in less than 2 weeks. Your post just made me even more excited for my trip!
It sure sounds like a dream trip!
Oh men, good looking things there…Sounds like a fantastic trip! I’ve always liked Madrid…

Great food round up! I feel like I don’t ever see or hear much of Spanish food so I really enjoyed this. If crisps come with everything I need to book my flight asap! I do like how in mainland Europe you get little snacks with drinks. It feels so much more civilised!
My neighbors just returned from Spain…and you’ve made me want to book a vacation and try all the classic dishes!
Oh my everything you ate sounds SOOOO good!
I’m so jealous, this looks like food heaven!
A super trip I love tapas and churros so yummy. Great review like us travelling with you Lucy
Glad you enjoyed Madrid ,my daughter is an English teacher there. She regularly dines on all the free tapas available , local knowledge is an advantage and so much cheaper.
Nice article, but no, you haven’t seen all there is to see. I’ve been here since 1989 and I certainly haven’t seen it all! 🙂
