Zapatillas!

Tonight I went out for tapas with a few friends around Lavapiés. We started out the night at Café Bar Melos, where we had the house specialty, Zapatillas, bocadillos of lacón (cured shoulder of pork) and cheese--greasy, huge, and damn good! We got two for 10€ each and split them among 6 of us! It was delicious! I also had to try a croqueta because they were huge! And, as I imagined, delicious!!! I can see why this bar is always full! We were lucky and managed to get a table, but you definitely have to come early to beat the crowd! The owners are an older couple and I don't know how they keep track of all the orders, but they do an incredible job! I was very impressed!

After Cafe Bar Melo's, we went to Bodegas Lo Maximo and another Cuban-type Bar, but Melo's and their Zapatillas was definitely the highlight of the night!
