Bar Alfonsillo, 1927
In Madrid a caña, a small beer, usually comes with a free tapa: olives, crisps, a slice of tortilla. Bar Alfonsillo in Carabanchel has been open since 1927 and still does it properly: a tapa with every drink, gambas a la gabardina, boquerones, and its famous oreja a la plancha, grilled pig's ear, brava or with lemon. Metro Carabanchel, line 5.
When: All year; weekday lunch 13:30 to 15:30 is the real scene.
