Tapas Tasting notes: Mercado San Miguel, Madrid

Trying to wrap-up notes from my trip to Madrid earlier this month...  Near the Plaza Mayor, is the not to be missed and inviting Mercado San Miguel.


Rich hot chocolate and delicious chros.  'Nuff said.
Olives can surprise you.  You think you know the acidic or briny flavor in store, but then they can catch you off guard with sweetness or even just a mild quality that you were not expecting.  The range of flavors in a single glass case, give credit to the age and quality of the fruit as well as the care in their preparation.

.
What a fun way to begin the day!
