PLASTIC FANTASTIC

These colourful boots from Miu

Miu evoke memories of jumping

in puddles and splashing, carefree,

with school friends. Pointy Perspex

ankle boots are just one of the high-

lights from Miu Miu’s latest collec-

tion which is playful and practical,

with utilitarian outerwear a focus.

Launching this season’s designs,

Miuccia Prada sent her models

down the catwalk in pastel tones

with a sports luxe feel. Perfect for

this season’s changeable weather,

the boots come in eye-catching

combinations, fuorescent plastic

collars tied with toggles and a

quirky nail heel, providing a chic

option for the winter months. df

FUTURE FASHION

With a mission to promote young

Spanish designers, Enfant Ter-

rible has created a space that is fun

and innovative. The idea is that

a local designer uses the store as

a platform in which to showcase

their work, whether for a day, a

week or a month, meaning that

Enfant Terrible’s ofering changes

frequently. Walk through the en-

trance, which is surrounded by a

fve-metre-high vertical garden,

and inside you can expect to fnd

anything from cocktail dresses

and fne jewellery to headwear

and soft furnishings. One thing is

certain, a trip to Enfant Terrible is

never boring. irs

SWISS STYLE

This season’s collection from

Bally pays homage to the Swiss

company’s chic heritage. The

women’s line contrasts masculine-

style tailoring with luxury fabrics

including cashmere, nappa leather

and soft suede. Separates, such as a

cashmere knee-length pencil skirt,

form the basis of a luxurious but

understated wardrobe. Look out

for the Gentlewoman bag: based

on the style of a Bally shoe from

1935, the cross-body design is

sharp and sophisticated. irs

ofFrom family-run tavernas to pop-up events, there’s much to discover in the city, as Karen Munnis fnds out

Taste

Part of enjoying any city is to be able

to dine where the locals eat. With

that in mind, Lauren Aloise saw

a gap in the market and launched

Madrid Food Tour in 2012 after

spending several years working

as a food writer in the city. ‘When

I came across the idea of a food tour

and realised Madrid didn’t have

one, I acted quickly,’ says Aloise,

who moved to Spain from the US.

Her company links tourists

with guides who take them on cu-

linary outings including tapas eve-

nings, trips to family-owned food

shops and visits to food markets.

Along with sampling dishes in tav-

ernas which are rich in history,

guests get to explore local neigh-

bourhoods, like Huertas, and to get

an insight into the local way of life.

The average group comprises just

50 | EXPER IENCE

The capital of Spain has a reputa-tion for embracing a variety of in-fuences, bringing together diverse peoples, cultures and cuisine. Ma-drid’s many restaurants are distin-guished due to their acceptance of outside infuences, in both ingre-dient choice and cooking styles, resulting in a deliciously varied gastronomic scene. The city’s cu-linary ofering has wide appeal, of-fering everything from traditional homemade dishes to innovative molecular gastronomy.

Madrid’s own gastronomy incorporates infuences from throughout Spain. In fact, even the city’s signature dish cocido

Madrileño, a chickpea-based stew,

is a combination of stews from a number of regions. Despite the city’s landlocked location, Ma-drid’s citizens are known for their love of seafood, while diners with a sweet tooth will be more than satisfed with torrijas (fried bread with honey or sugar). Tapas cul-ture is also a deep-rooted part of Madrid’s gastronomic scene, with diners travelling from bar to bar to eat raciones, many of which are gourmet standard.

Madrid also remains a hub of Michelin star restaurants, serving contemporary Spanish fusion cui-sine and more traditional dishes with the help of some of the world’s best chefs.

Table Talk

Madrid’s restaurants unite elements of cuisine from all of Spain’s regions,

employing the talents of leading chefs and the fnest available produce to create one of Europe’s most intriguing gastronomic scenes. Verity Hogan peruses the menu at

40: A Taste Of Local Life

Вкус Местной Жизни

РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОДFood Tour: «Когда я пришла к идее food-туров и убедилась, что в Мадриде нет ничего подобного, я действовала уже очень быстро», – делится Алоиз, переехавшая в Испанию из Америки.

Компания Madrid Food Tour организует для путешественников кулинарные экскурсии с гидами по тапас-барам, маленьким семейным лавкам и продуктовым рынкам. Дегустируя блюда в исторических тавернах, гости заодно исследуют районы испанской столицы, как, например, Huertas, и проникаются местным образом жизни. Алоиз стремится сохранить камерную атмосферу во время таких прогулок,

Карен Муннис рассказывает о необычных заведениях Мадрида – от семейных таверн до pop-up проектов

Лучший способ до конца прочувствовать город – это отправиться на обед в те же заведения, где бывают местные жители. И это отлично понимает Лорен Алоиз, поскольку она уже несколько лет пишет о ресторанах Мадрида. Обнаружив на этом рынке свободную нишу, в 2012 году она придумала Madrid

поэтому группа, как правило, состоит всего из пяти человек: «Практически на каждой остановке мы знакомимся с семьями, которые управляют собственным маленьким предприятием. Ведь именно это мы ценим больше всего».

Несмотря на то, что Мадрид – один из самых крупных городов Европы, ему удается сохранить спокойную атмосферу. Расслабленный досуг – здесь это национальное хобби: мадридцы любят удобно расположиться на террасе и хорошо покушать поздним вечером: «Никакого напряжения, каждый просто наслаждаются собой и окружающими», – комментирует Алоиз.

Того же мнения придерживается София Бозикис. Она родилась в Канаде и занималась дизайном аксессуаров, а в Мадрид приехала в 2009 году, чтобы сотрудничать с лучшими кожевенными производителями. Но влюбившись в мадридскую культуру, осталась надолго: «Это удивительное ощущение – потеряться среди извилистых улочек, останавливаться в крошечных маленьких кафе и тапас-барах». Как и многие коренные горожане, она больше всего любит район La Latina. В маленьком винном баре La Concha можно с удовольствием открыть бутылочку Rioja, а затем попробовать и другие

многочисленные вина, задержавшись допоздна. Особого внимания достоин и квартал Lavapiés: здесь есть испанские бары, пакистанские рестораны и стильные кафе – все они находятся недалеко друг от друга.

Наряду с традиционными заведениями, укоренными в испанской традиции, в Мадриде становится все больше магазинов, мероприятий и галерей, которые работают в формате pop-up – то есть открываются на непродолжительный срок в необычных местах. Мы особенно рекомендуем посетить такие временные магазины, кафе и просто места отдыха

Анонсы подобных мероприятий распространяются сарафанным радио, поэтому следите за новостями в социальных сетях, чтобы наверняка не пропустить следующее.

Чему бы вы ни посвятили свой досуг в Мадриде, вы непременно почувствуете, что этот город пленяет свои шармом и встречает чередой удивительных заведений, сохранивших традиционный дух.spain.info, madridfoodtour.com,esmejor.es

с открытой террасой. Кроме того, в Мадриде работает специализированное агентство, которое придумывает и проводит небольшие атмосферные события. Как правило, у них характерные названия – например, Te Apartment и Te Patio. Так, проект Te House занял трехэтажное здание в роскошном округе Salamanca и представил посетителям 80 брендов одежды, мебели, ювелирные украшений и аксессуаров, а также кафе, бар и огромную террасу на крыше.

TRAVEL COMPANION

La Portegna makes simple yet

stylish handcrafted designs in

leather and canvas with functional

products including bags, cases,

slippers and small leather acces-

sories. The company was found-

ed in Madrid by José Urrutia

in 2009 upon the discovery of

a photo album belonging to his

grandmother, which documented

her travels by boat between the

UK and India in the 1930s and

1940s, including trips with the

author Ernest Hemingway. All

La Portegna products are created

with the modern traveller in mind

and are handmade by artisans in

the south of Spain with an empha-

sis on the use of local and natural

tanning oils. Urrutia is often in

the store in the Salamanca district

to talk to visitors about the collec-

tion. The canvas weekend bag pic-

tured is a limited edition and will

be an ideal companion for your

next trip away. df
