September in Madrid, Some Good Tips!

September is here. Are we back to routine? Not necessarily...

Holidays may be over but there are many things to do to extend holiday feeling. Madrid has lots to offer and the weather is still very good. I propose the following activities for the rentrée:

Ainsley and My Little Madrid, together on Channel 4, don´t miss it!

As you know we accompanied Ainsley Harriott through the newest and traditional eating tendencies of Madrid. Here you can watch the whole Madrid Episode of Ainsley Harriott´s Street Food on Channel 4:

We loved Ainsley and the crew!!

Hope to see you all again in Madrid...

Acompañamos a Ainsley Harriott, un famosísimo chef inglés, a través de las nuevas y viejas tendencias culinarias de Madrid. Ya ha sido emitido en Channel 4 de la televisión inglesa así que si tiene curiosidad, aquí lo tienes. ¡Nos encantó la experiencia!

Mindfulness in Madrid

You have probably heard about Mindfulness lately, it is becoming quite a common conversation topic. Always wanting to try new things, I decided to experience it for myself.

Madrid in Art, ARCO and More!

Juan Genovés a sure bet!

Awesome! These days Madrid is the place to enjoy contemporary art. On Wednesday, ARCO, the Spanish reference art fair for collectors, gallery owners and artists has been inaugurated. ARCO is always interesting.

Pueblo Inglés - Full Immersion English Just minutes Away from Madrid

We made an exception and on today’s post, we travelled far away from Madrid. Actually, we found ourselves in the middle of the Batuecas Sierra (Salamanca), in a lovely landscape of acorn trees and wood and stone chalets. This place is called Pueblo Inglés, and for a week, you’ll find yourself living in an anglo/spanish melting pot with people you have never met before. However, this isn’t the most characteristic thing of the stay as you will only be able to communicate in English. Spanish is forbidden even among Spanish and waiters in the restaurant. Among the Anglos, there are many different cultures; Canadians, English and Americans have been enrolled as volunteers for this week’s program.

Chef Ainsley Harriot eats Madrid with us!

We never expected but it did happen… My Little Madrid will be featured in a TV show next January in many countries: the United Kingdom; the USA; Australia and some countries in Asia.  Best of all,  we will show some of our Madrid favorite places to famous and lively British chef Ainsley Harriott! The TV show is called “Ainsley Eats the Streets", and this time, the  famous chef travels around the world looking for new gastronomic experiences.  Of course, after going to Morocco, he could not fail to visit Madrid!

Tip for September: a picnic at the Retiro by Magasand

So, we are back in town and it’s official, the holidays are over. We all look very suntanned but inside a terrible post-holiday depression has overcome us… no more outdoor activities either in the sea or the mountains, the majority of us are now confined to be in front of a computer.

Summer holidays are over and we have the pavement as landscape, however, we at My Little Madrid have a recommendation that will, for sure, make you feel as though coming back to the city wasn’t so terrible... as you will have the feeling again of being free among nature!!

You just have to follow our instructions:
