Colección Abelló: Masterpieces of a Spanish Collector
One of the most important Spanish art
collections is currently exhibited in the Ayuntamiento de Madrid; it is a privilege
to have access to this wonderful exhibition. The Madrid City town hall,
through the project ‘Mecenazgo al
servicio del arte’, gives Madrid citicens access to some of the most prestigious
private art collections – in this case provided by Abelló family: La Colección Abelló.

Lalabeyou - Buy or Create your Own Jewelry!
I made a nice discovery while walking the
other day through Belen Street, doing some window shopping. At first, I was
amazed to see many drawings displayed with original jewelry. I was not sure
whether it was a shop or a gallery. A smiley lady inside informed me it was
both, and also a jewel atelier: Contemporary Jewelry Galery Lalabeyou!

El Huerto de Lucas, a new ecogastrocultural market!
I am so happy with this new eco trend going on in Madrid! Last Sunday I went to El Huerto de Lucas, in San Lucas 13, a covered market with a nice restaurant in the middle that is worth a visit, especially as walking down the Street you don’t seem to realize that there is a huge space of 450 square meters inside that can be considered as an eco-paradise! Actually their motto is ‘the first medicine is food’!

La Central - Much More than a Bookstore
We are big fans of the fantastic bookstore La Central in Callao! We consider it much more than a bookstore for many reasons. Firstly, they have more than 80 000 book references in several languages and many different sections that avoid the typical collection of best sellers you find elsewhere. It is a library within a 19th century palace. If you feel hungry or want to take a rest, you can also try their great “Bistro” with very tasty food options for breakfast, lunch or tea time. You can even stay for drinks at night in their bar, "el Garito" , where many events and book presentations take place.

Birkin or Kelly? difficult choice, get the answer at Palacio de Cibeles
A magnificent example of what Hermès represents through its own history and good work. It all started with saddlery for horses more than one hundred and seventy-six years ago. Today, however, Hermès has evolved to represent the essence of ultimate luxury.

Re-discovering the Prado Museum in August - Captive Beauty
As someone once said (Francisco Silvela in the XIX century) Madrid in August, without family and with money is "Baden-Baden". I would add that even without much money it is as attractive and relaxing as Baden-Baden used to be. This August I have been re-discovering the Prado Museum and I am enthusiastic about it. First: the exhibition "Captive Beauty: Fran Angelico to Fortuny", extraordinary small format works not seen on regular display, Second: the wonderful venue and display, fresh and quiet, Third: the price, free for all after 17:00h. I cannot imagine a better plan for a hot August afternoon, surrounded by beauty...

Casa Decor 2013 - A Yearly Appointment (we cannot miss)
Another year Casa Decor opens its doors in Madrid!! This time more challenging than ever. Designers need to transform a very 60's circular shaped office building, former british embassy, into residential spaces. Conceived as a diplomatic complex, the building is self-contained with its own system of security, electrical and water systems. And a very difficult layout. A real challenge and an extraordinary outcome! worth the visit!

Dalí Exhibition at Reina Sofia Museum
I have recently visited Reina Sofia for Dalí’s exhibition: All of the poetic suggestions and all of the plastic possibilities and gladly noticed that even if lots of people had had my same idea, the queue went very fast. And when I got to pay I had my first good news of the day; I got a free entrance because on Sundays, from 3 pm, no one has to pay. This is a good tip, isn’t it? Sigue leyendo, en español más abajo

Hotel One Shot 23 - sophisticated and comfy
This has been my last discovery: hotel One Shot 23 at calle Prado 23. I was wandering around calle Prado - a street I highly recommend, full of surprises - and without knowing I stepped into a hiper-cosmopolitan space that happened to be the reception of a hotel: One Shot 23. Brand new! En español abajo sigue leyendo.
