Madrid

I'm off to Madrid next week.

Can a body recommend anything to do/see/visit?

Have a nice walk in "parque del retiro" and try the famous dish "rabo de toro". Go to the city center "gran via" "calle fuencarral" "Sol" "cibeles" "puerta de alcalá"....

Went to a wedding in Spain and during the reception they had a entire leg set up among other food. I thought it was impossible to eat too much of that stuff and get sick of it. I proved myself wrong that day. It was 2 months before I thought of eating that stuff again.
