Docamar , the temple of the bravas in Madrid (located in the Ciudad Lineal district) participates in the gastro tour with two dishes to publicize its menu, in which there are many more things apart from the well-known potatoes: a mushroom risotto with tomato dry and arugula is the original proposal, and some artisanal black ravioli stuffed with portobello and wakame with their homemade sauce and spirulina powder wink at the future. El Anciano Rey de los Vinos , a downtown tavern inaugurated in 1909, will offer to all those who pass through its beautiful bar little gifts of torito, a traditional dish that was served in the tavern, but with a renewed recipe: oxtail wrapped in filo pastry with sauce and piquillo pepper. For its part, Manolo 1934 , a must for the best traditional cuisine, vindicates its Madrid-style tripe and will serve, as a suggestion, the manolinis, some curious homemade ravioli stuffed with stew, while Casa Pedro participates with its pickled sardines. Many more modern places also participate, such as La Berenjena , which brings its eggplant chips with salmorejo to the appointment; Níquel , which will serve its nickel-plated gilda based on tuna, piparra, anchovy and olive or La Caníbal , which will boast its kimchi-based Iberian torreznos.
Route 140 Madrid also wants to be a space for the dissemination of the gastronomic history of the capital. For this reason, HOSTELERÍA MADRID has prepared a website in which it explains the culinary evolution of each district, and in which the list of participants and a map with the venues can be consulted.
For José Antonio Aparicio, president of HOSTELERÍA MADRID, "the true protagonists of this anniversary are our hoteliers, and we want them to be the ones who tell their story as best they know how: offering their best dishes so that people know how they started, understand the evolution of their kitchen and find out how they face the future. Our wish is that the whole city gets involved and that Madrid residents and tourists are encouraged to discover other districts and areas, beyond the fashionable or traditional circuits. The history of the city can also be told through its catering businesses. The melting pot of gastronomy of Vallecas or Tetuán, the refinement of Salamanca, the wonderful Andalusian cuisine places of San Blas-Canillejas... the bars and restaurants are witnesses, and result, of this marvelous development of the city, which always goes hand in hand. of its gastronomy. Because Madrid is also plural in this ».
