“Stylish neighbourhood restaurant ”

Sep 2017

While a lot of Madrid restaurant cater mainly for meat eaters, El Azul de Fucar is a haven for vegetarians, vegans and carnivores alike. We had salmoreja, which is available with or without ham and truly delicious, marinated mushrooms with spinach and a pumpkin burger. Everything was very tasty and my only regret was that the portions were so generous that we couldn't sample any cake for the desert. This lovely little neighbourhood has a relaxed and friendly atmosphere and is well worth a visit.

The area

Address

Neighborhood: Huertas

Also known as Barrio de las Letras, Huertas was once home to prominent literary figures, Miguel de Cervantes and Lope de Vega among them. The neighborhood is committed to celebrating its rich heritage: Calle Huertas itself is inlaid with quotes from celebrated authors, street names pay homage to them, and second-hand bookshops pervade. Huertas receives a fair amount of spillover from the center — side streets around Plaza Santa Ana take on a foreign party atmosphere at night, and you always see young backpackers navigating the streets — but as you descend into the neighborhood, everything becomes a little more cramped and slightly less refined, and takes on more of an underground feel. Live music is at the heart of Huertas: by night, its subdued bars are ideal for meeting friends, sipping cocktails, and chatting quietly while enjoying jazz or singer-songwriter performances.
