Plaza San Andres (the big one in La Latina in the shadow of San Isidro's house and the church). The bar is called San Andres, does a good variety of food, is not as expensive as other terrazas and if there's space available, gets my vote.
This is a NON-touristy location so it may just be perfect for us... WAIT! We're mainly tourists!!!
hehehe.. Oh no!
Unfortunately because of the "renovation" of the Glorieta de Atocha we won't be having the "Party with MadridMan in Madrid" gathering at the famed and favorite El Brillante. <sniff!> This is very very unfortunate and I'm quite disappointed. Believe me! Oh well. Time to try somewhere new.
As usual, I'd like to start at a terraza so we can all sit around and meet. After an hour or so of eating, drinking, and getting to know one another, we'll move on to someplace else and likely visit a few more places for more food, drink, and talk.
I ALWAYS look forward to these annual gatherings but this year has been a bit different what with the recent events in Madrid and Spain. I'd even considered not having it but... well... people are still traveling and maybe the get-together is more necessary now than ever.
See you there, I hope!! Saludos, MadridMan
