no.
Chinese restaurants are popular. If you want any names on a Map then open Yellow Pages Spanish :

Then in Search box put

then in
"Actividades" put :
Restaurante chino
Whether they are to your taste is another matter.
for special veggetable
if not besides: Mercado De San Miguel
is there any other good veggy/fruits stand near sol? that the local shops?
If you are looking for specific vegetables used in Chinese recipes you may not find them in the regular markets/supermarkets.
Your best bet is Ta-tung Universal, a big shop of Asian products. It's a 30 min walk from Puerta del Sol, or you can take the metro to Principe Pio.

u are the best!
I am in madrid and I found several really really good china store and really cheap too, the biggest is at the buttom of Plaza de Espana. Dong fang :)
I just got back from my trip and it is clear that Barcelona had a lot more fresh veggy and fruits and eggs and seafood than in madrid and a lot cheaper. but later on in madrid we found a great great!!!!! store about 5 mins away from where we live on street of leon
if I remembered it correctly I was going east on C del El prado,then right on Leon and it will be on ur right hand, openned by a chinese couple, things here are so cheap, I got 2kg of orange for 1 euro.. and some apple, mushroom, long string beans... banana...99c
I do not have the address or pic that is the prob I did try to put on a tip
honestly I did not think about the tipping thing when I was there. if I am still there I would definitely go back and write down the store address and take a pic but now I am back to the state already
but if u are going there, just do as I did u should not miss the store
my fondest memory was following this really cute girl around. i was so bored and alone in madrid. i pretty much just walked around to pass the time. at one point i thought she was following me. but then we stumbled upon each other again, so i just decided to follow her... from a distance.

A gay friendly bar with good energy and strong drinks. Nice mixed crowd with a nice selection of magazines available or just sit and people watch.
Drag queens perform in the basement on the weekend.
I ordered a Red Bull with vodka. The Red Bull, glass of ice and bottle of Absolut arrived at the table and then he began to pour, and pour...and pour! I had to tell him to stop pouring vodka! Now where in the US does THAT happen?! Dress as ya please!
