Steak tartare with quail’s egg, strawberries with basil
juice, and Greek yogurt foam with a touch of pepper are
a few of the reasons why this restaurant is always busy.
Ask the waiters for recommendations – they’re all former
chefs.

A quote
from the writer Raymond Chandler invites you to come in
this bar – dedicated to the classic 1862 mixology. Watch
the staff tease original recipes and techniques to produce
fine Manhattans, daiquiris, and countless other cocktails.
Mercado de Motores
On the second weekend of each
month, outside the Railway Museum, is this cool market.
Go for retro pieces and striking objets d’art alongside
delicious snacks and live music.

so don’t order too much.
