The Cocido Madrileño (a traditional chick-pea based stew from Madrid) Route is the best way to fight off the cold in the Spanish capital. There are 43 restaurants in the Madrid Autonomous Region taking part in this tenth edition and offering a taste of this typical dish from Madrid.
The Madrid Stew Route visits establishments throughout the region. In addition to establishments in Madrid, restaurants in the municipalities of Alpedrete, Alcalá de Henares or Alalpardo offer the best stews. In last year’s edition, establishments from Fresno de Cantespino and Ugena, municipalities belonging to Segovia and Toledo respectively, participated.
The guests will be able to enjoy a cocido usually served in three vuelcos (servings): soup, chick-peas and vegetables, and meats. The Cocido Madrileño Route is a perfect plan to enjoy our typical dish and fight off the cold with a spoon.
