Nuevo Horno de Santa Teresa — Restaurant in Madrid

I ate a good bit of places while I was in Madrid but this one lives rent-free in my head. If you're reading this and you're from the southern United States and you eat soul food/country cookin you'll have no problem with this place. It's just fatty, porky, beefy, goodness.

(Not cool !!), Meat (beef was ok the rest ... Set yourself up for a disappointment).

Well for two we spent 50 euros ! (I can think of much more pleasant experiences in that price range ) (2 cosidos +...
