Food paradise in Madrid.

Mercado de San Miguel.

If you don't know what you should eat in Madrid, just go to a fantastic market - Mercado de San Miguel, it's right in the city center. Taking metro to Sol station and walking a few minutes, you will reach the food paradise.

Most of the food, of course, is tapas. When you walk in, you will see lots of food stores and vanders, it was a WOW! Where should I start it? Our first tried was my favorite cheese sandwich, I can't survive without Mozzarella. When you had food, of course you needed some drinks to go with it, we ordered Sangria from the bar. It was so convenient to order what you wanted, and the varieties of food were amazing.

I highly recommend you go earlier, we went there around lunch time, it was fully packed. We can't find a table and seat, so we only ordered a little food like take-away style. I saw people with friends had a table, they ordered the cheese plates, olives, tapas and wine, and spent afternoon there, that's life.

You can pay by card or cash, there was one thing I noticed that some vanders didn't take cash by their hands, they will ask you to put your own money in the machine, and you will get the changes from the machine as well. It's like Japan, so many convenient stores and shops do so now.

This is a must do in Madrid, come and enjoy the amazing food.
