My map of favorite cafes in Madrid: the most special corners of the capital that I always return to Food
Carlos Maldonado, chef: “Canned cockles do not improve with lemon. They are tastier if we mix their juice with cilantro, garlic powder, cumin and salt” Food
Martín Berasategui, chef: "If you mix sardines with oil, some cheese, parsley leaves, crush them and add oil, you will hallucinate." Food
Mario Sánchez, food technologist: “Eating the potato omelet very undercooked is like taking a salmonella foam bath” Food
Dani García, chef, on the best recipe for clams a la marinara: “Do not use fumet or broth, only what is inside the clam. You don't need more” Food
Encarna, grandmother cook, on her best stewed chicken recipe: “Once the potatoes are fried, I add them with the chicken” Food

Very juicy chicken from chef José Andrés: "I leave it marinating overnight with red wine, a little garlic, celery, carrot, onion and shallot.” Food
