A restaurant for restless people in Madrid
In this globalized and increasingly homogenized world, the rare and the rare are the kings . If you manage to make a difference, you win. That's why, Carlos Moreno-Fontaneda has decided to bet on the difference with a declaration of intentions already announced from the name of its new and third restaurant in Madrid, ** Raro Rare. **
You dare?
After the success of Biscuit Bar and The Dog and the Biscuit , this restaurateur and member of the Fontaneda biscuit family, has opened Raro Rare in the capital, “a cabinet of curiosities” as he defines it by its decoration, but a definition that could (and should) also be extended to his letter.
Sea bass and prawn ceviche from Raro Rare
In Rare Rare , at first glance things may not seem so different to you, it is a place that is on the corner of the Barcelo Street, with large windows, bright during the day, warm and golden light at night, and full of corners to get 'likes' on Instagram. But if you look closely what you will find are rare, strange, different, extravagant objects , of all kinds, with which Carlos Moreno Fontaneda pays homage to his uncle, Angel of him, a great collector.

And the same goes for your gastronomic proposal . If we define it with brushstrokes we could call it fusion cuisine, japanese, peruvian, mexican … but the reality when reading it closely and, above all, trying their dishes is much more special . Betting on the raw ones (as a nod to the name) there are hot and cold dishes as special as the Sea bass and shrimp ceviche with yellow chili tiger milk , the spicy salmon dragon roll, the chicken gyozas with Iberian jowls, the usuzukuri of sea bass with chimichurri... That is to say, dishes that may seem familiar, but find their exact originality in this setting. And then it has some real rarities like pibil cheek tacos or frog legs with cilantro mayo and red mojo sauce.
