    I had seen this bizarre phenomenon in Paris last year and again in Madrid this year. That is, that…read moreAsian cuisine styles tend to get lumped together in one restaurant. Convenience? Perhaps. I would think though that it is some sort of insidious form of racism, where tolerance for anything not European forces adaptation on the part of those who have something different to offer. That said, I felt sorry for the lack of people in this place. The 10 euro all you can eat lunch special should have been packing in the punters on what was a typically warm, late summer Madrid afternoon. With a good range of food on offer, including Chinese stir fry favourites, sashimi and ice cream, I would almost kill to have something this cheap and this diverse back home in Sydney. The service was friendly and welcoming and the beer, as it should be, extremely cold. As we left this place, I contemplated how European cities must quickly adapt to what will be Asian dominated centuries ahead. For one, they will have to get better, that is, much better at doing Asian food. On that point, despite the horrific prices, many lessons can be learnt from Sydney and Melbourne. In Sydney and Melbourne, Asian cuisines are thankfully distinct and flavours both sumptuous and gorgeous...

    If you have a sushi craving, I recommend Leyenda. All-you-can-eat sashimi, nigiri, rolls, in…read moreaddition to tempura, sweet & sour chicken, miso soup. More. Also included is Mongolian-style grill bar. Just pick your ingredients - meats - veggies - noodles - sauce - and they wok it up! Desert included too. For 12 Euros!! I'm a newbie to sushi, but I see no reason to frequent any other sushi place in Madrid. I.E. - Sushi Club for twice the price. My only caveat is you might not have very much selection if you arrive exactly when they open. My friends went when they opened at noon, and they were told all the food would be ready at 13:00.

    Llegamos a este restaurante impulsados por todas las recomendaciones tanto de YouTube como de…read moreamigos. La verdad no está mal si comparas calidad - precio. Para dos personas te incluye la mesa buffet, carne (all you can eat) no top of the line, una botella de vino, dos empanadas, café y postre para dos personas por un poco menos de 70 euros en fin de semana pienso que es OK. Ahhh.... Pero el flan espectacular lo que quizás le falte en carne les sobra en el flan. Muy bueno!!!!!!!

    On our 2nd to last night on Madrid, we found ourselves at the Knife. Why did we wait so long???…read more Everything about the place was wonderful. We arrived early (8:30) and had the place mostly to ourselves. The cold bar is delicious, with lots of choices of salads, fruits, olives, all kinds of good stuff. But don't fill up there (unless you're a vegetarian) because MEAT is the word here! (OK, actually, it's carne, but you get the idea.) Everything we had from the chefs was delicious. Black sausage, Argentinian sausage, steak, chicken wrapped in bacon, even the grilled veggies were amazing. The prix fix is very reasonable. My only complaint was that we didn't know we could order tinto verano instead of bottled wine. That would have been better (the wine was good, but it was hot, and we could have used something lighter.) But I won't take points for that. All told, the Knife was perfect! 5 smokey grilled stars!
