Dinging in Madrid

I’m sitting here slightly getting drunk, but nobody minds and me neither.

I’m dining here next to Plaza Mayor in Madrid (Spain btw), like a good tourist I am. I know there are more kinky places, but with 30 degrees outside one stops bothering looking.. Yes, I did actually check a few places.

I’m drinking here a Cerveza, it might have been the 3rd one already. Dining at an Argentinian place, also 3rd time, next to Plaza major, going Calle del Toledo. I did enjoy something I actually rarely order: some kind of steak. It was really tasty. Now you hate me right? You vegetarians! Oh, that’s OK..

I’m sweating.. Today I noticed the salt of my sweat is making white lines on my black polo. Weird I thought, but lesson learned: don’t wear black in hot places.

Maybe I should ask for the bill as they are running out of space on their terrasse.

If I may recommend some very good places to go eat in Madrid:

Al Natural (http://www.alnatural.biz/), vegetarian place, but with a wide selection and damn good food. It's located close to the Thyssen museum, so you can combine both if you feel up to it.

Ginos / VIPS (http://www.grupovips.com/flash.php) - you should encounter several of these restaurants in Madrid, they're part of the same Grupo Vips but both have delicious dishes (Ginos being more Italian)

Hope you're having a good stay over in Madrid, it's one of my favourite cities to visit!
