Now yes... welcome to summer!
SUMMER, WE HAVE MISSED YOU. The closer the summer, the more plans we want. That's how it has always been. Drink in hand, refreshing dishes and laughter with friends in the heat of the sun. Casa Sweden has decided to celebrate summer not just one day, but every weekend until the end.
In collaboration with NH Collection Madrid Sweden, they wanted to bring Midsommar, the festival that kicks off summer in Sweden , and they have done it with a special menu on Fridays at noon on its Roof Top.
Starting tomorrow and throughout the summer, you will be able to enjoy an authentic banquet, which includes dishes such as Casa Sweden salad, homemade guacamole with tortilla chips, sea skewers or teriyaki chicken with vegetables, grilled Iberian pork lizard... And many more options, accompanied by cocktails and, of course, the sweet icing at the end. Why celebrate only the beginning of summer? (Every Friday from June 19, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., at Casa Sweden, Calle del Marqués de Casa Riera, 4)
Yes to food and cocktails with a view!
FOR THE LITTLE ONES. The Puppet Theater has prepared three shows starting tomorrow so that the little ones in the house can also enjoy the weekend and many more days. Online and for all children , since they will have measures such as interpreters for sign language, subtitling and audio description.
The premiere comes from the hand of Grandfather's House, by the Andalusian company La Rous, National Theater Award for Children and Youth. It will be joined by novelties such as Leocadia and the mice on July 3, and Blip and Lúa, a story of intergalactic friendship, on July 17.
These performances can be enjoyed from home through its website and on the Vimeo channel of Madrid Destino. (From June 19 to August 31)
Summer fun is also for the little ones.
TO SUCK YOUR FINGERS. What would happen if the Mallorca Pastry Shop and the Fismuler restaurant joined forces? This combination can only bring good results. In this case, everyone concentrates on the iconic Fismuler cheesecake and that now we can also buy at the Mallorca Pastry Shop or enjoy it at home!
This embrace between two companies so familiar arises from the friendship between the two and, especially, from the trust . One of Fismuler's most beloved dishes, elaborated by Nino Redruello and Patxi Zumárraga , now also goes to the bakery of Pastelería Mallorca.
The strong demand for this cake, fruit of the mixture of three cheeses (fresh, smoked and blue) , has also influenced this multiplication of its place of sale.
In portions or whole, followers of this dessert will be able to consume it in both spaces and, in addition, order it (24 hours in advance) to savor it on the sofa at home. never the phrase "Union make force" it made so much sense. (From June 22. Cake 6 portions: €27. Portion: €4.50)
Our favorite dessert now, also, in Mallorca.
WE EAT SAN JUAN . It's coming the night of San Juan , one of those expected parties to meet with family and friends by the light of the fire. This time, the restaurant La Mesa de Conus, in Vigo , proposes a twist that maintains that halo of mystery of one of the most popular nights of the year.
Víctor Conus has prepared a surprise menu . All we know is that it has its famous croquettes 'de la Yaya' and its sardines . The rest is a secret that makes the evening something intriguing. The wishes we see burning every night we will burn by candlelight, and there will be a queimada against curses.
For those who do not arrive on time, the menu, which will be held** on Mastes 23 at 10 p.m.**, can also continue to be enjoyed on Wednesday 24 at 2:30 p.m. (Previous reservation required)
What will this surprise menu bring us?
THIS IS GOING TO EAT . We have seen how in recent weeks the doors of many museums and cinemas have opened, wrapping ourselves in that new normal environment . Now, as lovers of gastronomy, the usual course of our daily life is being reflected in the reopening of hundreds of restaurants.
Events, special menus, traditions and innovations... We have missed them and it is time to show it . Here is a small appetizer of new openings.
The Galayos (Madrid). If what you want is to walk through the most emblematic places of Madrid, you have to stop at Los Galayos . Your terrace is in the Plaza Mayor , perhaps the best place to sit and enjoy your kitchen. From the hand of the Grande brothers (Alicia, Fernando and Miguel), you will be able to savor the embrace between Castilian cuisine and the most avant-garde recipes.
The result is crispy torreznos, baby lamb squid with free-range eggs and julienne of peppers, breaded wild asparagus with chive alioli, crispy oven-roasted suckling pig... Among many other options. The best combination between stage and gastronomy. (Plaza Mayor, 1. Madrid. Tel. 913 663 028)
The usual food in the usual places.
Athens Beach (Cadiz) . On the beach, under the sun, and in a coastal paradise like Cádiz . This restaurant serves the Mediterranean cuisine and the smell of the sea to create Eden itself.
Sea bass and prawn ceviche, whole potera squid with tartare, grilled lamb chops with poor potatoes , and a long etcetera accompanied by cocktails and entertainment at the mercy of the sea breeze. (Novo Sancti Petri, La Barrosa Beach, Chiclana de la Frontera, Cádiz. Tel. 856 92 51 90)
Perhaps the Atenas Playa setting is the best for eating.
Pitaya Malaga (Malaga) . can you imagine being able to travel to Thailand from the Historic Center of Malaga ? We already anticipate that the result is delicious. This gastronomic concept that has already triumphed all over the world lands on the Costa del Sol to offer healthy and fast food and direct , since the dishes are prepared in front of the customer.
international dishes like the Bo Bun Thai, crispy vegetable salad , vermicell, citronella marinated veal, nuoc-mam sauce and fresh mint; the Nua Kao, prawns and beef with rice , crispy vegetables and fried onions; or some better known like their woks or the Pad Thai . (Company, 28. Malaga. Tel. 952 064 699)
We are going to Thailand without moving from Malaga
