  • Madrid has traditionally been a haven to the best of Spanish food, with restaurants offering the cuisines of all the country's very different regions. Madrid's own traditional specialities are humble food, with plenty of beans and lentils, and much use of offal. Worth looking out for – despite the distance from the sea – are fish and shellfish, which are outstandingly good here!
    Even so, one thing to understand about food in Madrid is that the important thing – as with much socialising here – is to go out. Spain is, after all, a country that gives tapas (snacks) a near-equal status with dining, and as places to eat restaurants as such are only part of a varied whole. Take notice, that in Spain restaurants open late (around 21.00) and serve till after midnight.
