International cuisine
A Culinary Melting Pot
Madrid is a cosmopolitan region with a wide range of cuisines from around the world, allowing us to experience other unique cultures. Madrilenian gastronomy is not just the cuisine of Madrid; it is a showcase of all the cultures - national and international - that can be found in our Community and an open market for all kinds of everyday and exotic products. Regional Spanish cuisine, Japanese cuisine, Chinese cuisine in all its variants, Peruvian cuisine, Mexican cuisine, etc., can be enjoyed in luxury establishments, restaurants, and small home-style restaurants. In addition, a stroll through the markets of Madrid allows you to appreciate the immense variety of products available to all gastronomy enthusiasts and, in many cases, to taste them in the markets themselves.
