Restaurante Tasca Madrid: lunch in Centro
My opinion was mixed.My Spanish language skills are decent but do not extend to the fine points on a menu; so after seeing the place had lots of fish (of which I ate much of in Panama), I decided to order the chicken. The taste was alright the problem was that it was a big bowl of chicken hearts or kidneys, blah.So I called for 'la cuenta' and I could not explain that it was my mistake etc but then the owner stormed out of the kitchen straight to my table and then smiled and said "did I speak English?" and just laughed when I told him my issue.He immediately sent out a big plate of 'paella' which was delicious and cost more than what I ordered yet the bill was unchanged.They had a great Spanish-style guitar player and good coffee too! paella
