Sergi Arola Gastro

The Catalan masterchef who put La Broche on the culinary map moved house and opened this new top spot in the Chamberí district, creating yet another must on the Madrid gourmet circuit. Just about the most discreetly located major restaurant in the country, it nestles unobtrusively in a quiet Chamberí street just a two-minute stroll away from his former locale. Among his many highly inventive dishes, keep a special eye out for the tosta de lenguado y láminas de boletus con crema de ajo ("toast" of sole with razor-thin slices of boletus mushrooms cooked in garlic sauce) and crema de calçots con huevo frito y vieiras (cream of calçots with fried egg and scallops). To accompany your meal there's a mind-boggling choice of over 500 hand-picked wines, including some of the very best vintages from Spanish and international vineyards. The cozy lounge bar also provides stunning cocktails served by barman supreme Diego Cabrera and "gastro snacks" and accompanying raciones such as almejas vinagretas (clams in vinaigrette sauce).
