People in Madrid:
1. Smell really good
2. Live outside sitting at bars sipping coffee and beer while eating tapas
3. Love playgrounds (if you have a kid)
4. Wear beautiful shoes
5. Can enjoy a good bottle of wine for less then 2€
6. Eat a big lunch at 2pm and a little dinner at ...much, much later!
7. Close their shops from 3-5...and the streets become a ghost town!
8. Have incredible locally made olive oil potato chips! (crisps for you
English folk!). You generally get these free as a tapa with your
beverage, or you can buy them for 1€ for a huge bag at any little
shop.
9. Have free access at the right times to the most beautiful art
10. Most importantly! People in Madrid love Jamon! (ham...but at an
artisional level...it's serious stuff!!!!) as well as chorizo and other forms of sausage are by
far the most popular and most apreciated form of snack/tapa/lunch/
dinner everywhere! It crosses every price range, every picnic and
every family table across the city. It has changed our lives!
I heart Jamon!!!
