El Ñeru Madrid
Ambassador of Asturias in Madrid
Asturian cuisine is a treasure trove of comforting flavors, and El Ñeru stands tall as one of its finest ambassadors. Nestled just a short stroll from the renowned Plaza Mayor in Madrid, this establishment beckons those in pursuit of authentic, hearty dishes crafted from premium Asturian ingredients. The servings here are not only generous but also incredibly wallet-friendly, promising a satisfying feast without breaking the bank.
Dive into age-old classics like the soul-warming fabada, a bean stew that perfectly encapsulates the essence of Asturian comfort. Or venture into contemporary delights such as the cachopo - a crispy concoction of two deep-fried veal steaks, oozing with serrano ham and cheese. And to round off your culinary journey, the rice pudding is an absolute must-try; it's a symphony of creamy sweetness that will leave you yearning for more. No meal here is complete without a few glasses of sidra, Asturias' beloved cider, adding a refreshing touch to the flavorful spread.
Beyond its delectable menu, El Ñeru boasts a vibrant bar scene, setting it apart as one of the most bustling spots in the vicinity. And it's not just about quantity; the tapas here resonate with quality, ensuring every bite is memorable.
Elevating its credentials, El Ñeru is a proud member of the Chaîne des Rôtisseurs Spain, the world's oldest gastronomic association. This affiliation is a testament to the restaurant's unwavering commitment to excellence, assuring diners of a top-notch experience with every visit.
