Cuisine:

When locals in Madrid want to kick back and have a drink or a snack in a beautiful bar or out on a terrace, they love to get tapas!  Tapas have been a tradition in Spain for centuries.  Many Spaniards go for tapas between meals to enjoy a cold beer or a glass of wine, as well as a tasty snack. The thing that really makes Madrid so good for trying different tapas is that legally, restaurants are obliged to serve some type of tapas for free with every alcoholic drink.  Going for tapas is one of our favorite cultural activities here at LAE Madrid!
