Taberna Txakoli (tapas) - Spain ( Madrid)

Another fun, crowded, tapas spot in the La Latina district of Madrid.

assorted tapas

amstel light?! and fruit juice + beer

Mostly glasses of wine or Amstel Light on draft.  I choose a fruit juice + beer concoction that everyone else in the room was sipping on.  Fruity, fizzy taste- yum



Clam with white sauce (back), Hojadre con foie (front) - pastry wtih foie

A seafood salad mixture with clams and a breaded topping.  Rich tasting.  The pastry was light and flakey.  Inside was a sweet foie filling.   



Bomba rellende de carne picada - large deep fried ball of beef wrapped in mashed potatoes 



This dish is huge!  Meat + potatoes + deep fried.  Not the tastiest dish, but probably the one of the most interesting looking ones here.

Verdict:                    Fun, lively spot with a lot of different tapas to choose from.  Nothing outstanding, but a good variety
                                        of standard tapas.
