We asked several of the La Aventura Española students their favorite food and drink spots in neighborhood Malasaña. Barrio Malasaña is a trendy, lively part of Madrid’s city centre. Malasaña district is situated North of Gran Via, on streets between Fuencarral, San Bernardo and del Pez which cluster around Malasaña’s most extensively social square, Plaza Dos de Mayo.
