Restaurant Casa Alberto, Madrid - Spain
One of Madrid's oldest taverns, Casa Alberto has worked for generations to maintain a long and honourable tradition of good and excellent food.
Casa Alberto has existed since 1827 in a building that is said to be the place where the famous Cervantes wrote one of his books. A meeting place for bullfighters and lovers of bullfighting, writers, playwrights and artists of all kinds, Casa Alberto's restaurant is in itself a piece of art and a piece of Madrid's history, with a service that continues to strive to please its customers.
Casa Alberto, being a fervent advocate of tasty and healthy Madrid cuisine, ensures that there is always a traditional 'spoon' dish on the menu, consisting of a hearty stew or a delicious soup. Adorned with oil paintings, the restaurant still has its antique zinc bar with a bowl of running water to keep the wine fresh and a draught beer head.
