Poke Bowl Invasion
![]() |
This is Poke! |
There is an indisputable trend going on in Madrid for the last months, I am talking about Poke. I first heard about it a year ago, I was told that hawaiian surfers were very fond about it and I was surprised by its simplicity and freshness. Poke is all about raw fish cut in dices with vegetables and usually a basis of rice served in a bowl with a great variety of other possible ingredients like vegetables and sauces.

Five Must Does in Madrid this Christmas
Decorate your home - Build your own Madrilenian nativity scene.
First go to plaza Mayor to buy figurines. The essential figurines are: Mary, Joseph, baby Jesus, cow and donkey, angel, some shepherds and the three wise men.A tip: do not buy the caganet it is not a local figurine.
Another tip: While in plaza Mayor take advantage to have a Christmas chocolate con churros at Chocolatería San Gines.
Then go to your nearby park and pick some moss, stones, twigs, etc.
Find a good spot in your house far from pets. Do not forget to build up a river with kitchen foil and to add some lighting that will make the joy of the little ones.
Visit a museum but make sure you buy your tickets online beforehand.
Our choice :
- Clara Peeters at Museo del Prado from 25th October 2016 to 19th February 2017.
- Renoir at Thyssen Bornemisza Museum from 18th October 2016 to 22th January 2017.
- Robert Doisneau – la Belleza de lo Cotidiano at Fundación Canal from 6th October 2016to 8th January 2017.
Treat your belly and go for nice healthy food.

Treat your look. Since you are not going to start a diet go for a facial at Skininc, a massage at Assari or a walk at the Retiro Park.
Have crazy amusement. Go for a show with dinner to the newly revamped Florida Retiro, depending on the day you can choose a musical show or jazz music, and after 01:30 a.m. lively disco and dancing.
And a final suggestion outside the list: stay at home, relax and watch a nice TV series with a glass of Spanish wine avoiding the masses.
Best wishes to all of you from My Little Madrid!!

Tuk tuk and Deliveroo’s special discount for My little Madrid readers
I have
recently discovered the only Asian street food restaurant that exists in
Madrid: TUK TUK Street food It has been a great surprise because they have a nice selection of food
from Thailand, Hong Kong and Singapour. In fact, when you go there you get a
mild feeling of travelling to Asia, where it is quite common to eat all kind of
different foods in the streets: tasty, cheap and all in small bites.

New Year’s Resolution: Get Fit, 3 Sports Around Retiro Park!
In my 2015
wishlist I have been very specific about increasing my sports and yoga
practices, you know what they say: “mens sana in corpore sano”. But to be fair,
it is tricky to start the year off on the right foot because of the cold
season. It stops many of us from accomplishing this very popular goal; getting fit.
However, Madrid offers new healthy and cool sports on regular basis, where
the cold is not an issue. So here three suggestions involving the Retiro Park!

SKINC- Skin Supplement Beauty Bar
On the Plaza de Santa Ana, inside the well known Hotel ME Santa Ana (Meliá Hotels) you can peek through the window a very elegant, modern, clean and polished white bar with many colourful little bottles. I was intrigued to know what it was about... and the story behind it made me even more attracted. It is the Skin Supplement Beauty Bar, a concept created by a wonderful lady named Sabrina Tan.

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:

Shopping for gourmet canned seafood - La Conservera by Frinsa
There is a delicatessen in Madrid that all seafood lovers should definitely visit: La Conservera by Frinsa. It is a great place for tin can shopping, and despite the fact that we sometimes consider canned food less interesting than fresh food, I have to say that the quality of products inside Frinsa’s cans is amazing! a wonderful marine breeze for your next menu!
