MADRID - CASA TONI
CASA TONI
Casa Toni is a small, basic bar restaurant that doesn't look like much at first glance. However, give it a try. The food is excellent for the price, and there are always plenty of locals, which is usually a good sign. You can find extra seating upstairs.
You should be aware that the dishes are generally very generous portions, so consider this when ordering. This is the place to try offal (i.e. animal innards), like the delicious mollejas (sweetbreads, which are often mistakenly believed to be the testicles of an animal. There are two separate glands, the thymus gland (from the throat) and the pancreas gland (from the heart or stomach), taken from calves or lambs. We had the riñones (kidneys)
Berengenas de la casa (fried aubergine with honey)
Boquerones fritos (deep fried anchovies)
Boquerones vinagre (anchovies marinated in vinegar with garlic and parsley)
Champioñes a la plancha (garlic mushrooms)
Chopitos (deep-fried baby squid)
Chorizo frita (fried chorizo sausage)
Pimientos de Padrón (Padron peppers with sea salt)
We had a few cañas to drink and then moved on to the wine, starting with a copa Rueda Verdejo.
followed by 12 Lunas from Somontano.
The friendly waiters and positive, authentic Spanish atmosphere make this a place not to miss if you like traditional tapas.
Most of the staff are Atletico Madrid fans, and directly across the street from the bar is a plaque to commemorate where the football club was formed.
