| Dancing at the Florida Retiro |
There was
great expectation in Madrid about the reopening of the mythic and longed Florida Retiro
inside the Retiro Park and we were lucky to be invited to the glamorous opening
party last Friday.
We experienced
the posh, fun and colorful atmosphere of that historical space revamped by
Pascua Ortega. The round hall is decorated in crimson and gold, the scenery
shows gorgeous cabaret dancers that make impossible convolutions to the rhythm
of hip/funky/electronic music and everybody dances like crazy till the morning
lights…

The choice
for food in the five restauration spaces that the complex holds is varied, from
exclusive and pricey to easy going and affordable. The high end restaurant la
Sala offers on Saturdays and Sundays the awesome cabaret show by Pandora Nights
and a delicious menu by starred chef Joaquin Felipe. On Thursdays the Chattanooga Big Band plays in full songs by Frank Sinatra, Nat King & Natalie Cole,
Chicago, Billy Joel, Burt Bacharach, Beatles, Carpenters, Elton John and many
more.
Alternatively
you can enjoy, day and night, a nibble and beer from los Kioskos, a street food
option, have some tapas at la Galería or try the classy el Pabellón.

We will see
how it evolves and if it gets the credit it deserves but we foresee a great
future for the Florida Retiro. We will repeat our visit for sure…
