Hi Foodies,
I'm going to Madrid for the first time and will be traveling with my teenaged son. He's got a great palate and is an adventurous eater, BUT he doesn't like "fancy" places. He's not so into DiverXO kinds of dining or, I think, anyplace with a white tablecloth or an English menu! I was hoping someone knowledgeable about Madrid could recommend some family run, authentic restaurants we might try. He tends to like the kinds of neighborhood places with character that local families would make a "regular" spot.
Our hotel is near Plaza de Colon if that helps, but we will be traveling around the city.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions of your favorite haunts!
