I am from the US, but visit Guadalajara often. Dublin House is a little jewel in downtown GU…read more Contrary to the name, it does not strike me as an Irish pub at all. But that's Ok. It is located in the Plaza Mayor. Pretty much the best location in the city. It has copious outdoor seating during warm weather. My 13 year old daughter and I dined there for lunch twice this week. The menu del Dia is around 11 Euros during the workweek. The is a notch above the typical bar Menu del Dia. On the first day, I started with artichoke hearts flecked with bits of jamon serrano. My main course was a very well prepared swordfish a la plancha with EVOO, garlic and parsley. It was a thick, meaty slab of fish--flavorful and not overcooked. Dessert was a...well, it was a cake whose name I don't remember...but good. On our second lunch, I started with a generous tomato and tuna salad. Big wedges of fresh tomato, adorned with a pile of classic Spanish canned tuna (which, FYI, is light years better than the canned tuna in the US) and dressed with a light sherry vinegar and EVOO dressing. My daughter had spaghetti Bolognese that she devoured. My second course was trout a la plancha--simple, yet fresh...moist meat and crispy skin. We happened to pass by on Halloween afternoon, and Dublin House hosted a fantastic party in the Plaza Mayor--with make-up artists, musicians, candy and lots of un. This is what I like most about Dublin House. The atmosphere--and the staff-- are delightfully gregarious and eccentric. The interior was extensively decorated for Halloween-- with skeletons playing cards at a poker table, bloody handprints on the walls and windows, another skeleton sitting in a chair at the front door. The place screams "Fun!" Looking beyond the seasonal decor, it is clear that great care was taken in decorating the interior. The place is adorned with sofas, and artfully arranged fabrics--this is not your typical bar to watch a bullfight. The owners and staff have a keen, artistic flair. Dublin House is great. Go there, drink a glass of wine, enjoy are great quality tapa, and stay for lunch.

I first made my way to La Panaderia a month ago and everything changed. The music comes at you from all angles to accompany a beer that is always ice cold. Christian and Jeremy not only are two of the best damn bartenders in the world but are also some of my mejor amigos. Ready to keep the beer flowing, the music bumping, and the conversations buzzing. A duo that some refer to as "generational talent" or "a force to be reckoned with" they remind me of The Lebron and Dwayne Wade Miami Heat, The Shaq and Kobe Lakers, and the MJ and Scottie Pippen Bulls. My advice to anyone who makes their way to Calle Mayor in Alcala: pay a visit to La Panadera. La Panaderia is not just a bar, it is a journey; a journey of self realization, a journey of fate, and a journey of prosperity. The beer is my paintbrush and La Panaderia is my canvas. Viva La Panaderia!
