Get Real….
We don’t know if it’s a saying here but it’s better to be red than dead seems to apply. Enter through Bar Madrid’s decorative iron gates and inside is a simply furnished bar and restaurant wrapped in raging red walls and decorated with the Spanish flag. Suburban and sterile Palm Square is not a patch on Plaza Mayor in the Spanish capital, but pair a bottle or glass of Spanish wine, cava (the Spanish version of champagne) or sangria with the kitchen’s non-halal tapas and you’ve got a terrific way of whiling away a sweltering afternoon in the suburbs.
