Tepic Madrid
Mexican dishes
María José from Madrid
I'm Mexican food freak and I can't deny it. Tepic is a restaurant with a terrace on Calle Ayala, it is one of my favorites in spring and summer because they have divine tamarind juices and a variety of tacos or quesadillas to brighten the hearts of anyone.
My favorite dish is the chicken tingas (the one in the photo) -- the stew is made in a way that you will always want to return. And we cannot forget the panuchos yucatecos (a region of the Mexican Caribbean) based on corn (very tasty). I recommend you ask about the intensity of the spiciness, I prefer to order the green tomatillo sauce that gives off a different taste and is not spicy.
You can also ask for dishes to share like the Acapulco Tropical (contains pineapple) or the delicious guacamole that should not be missing from any table. The avocado is a gift from the gods!
Oaxacan chocolate crepes, chocolate and mole are known for their flavor and you have the opportunity to try them in Madrid!
