Located at number thirty-two on Calle Augusto Figueroa in the heart of Madrid, Per Se Bistró rises majestically. The most personal project to date of the incombustible Andrés Madrigal. Recently awarded a well-deserved Sol Repsol, this charming restaurant has established itself in its short life as an essential destination for lovers of haute cuisine.
Now that winter is coming, Per Se Bistró has a new menu. A new gastronomic proposal that celebrates seasonality by paying an endearing tribute to the best seasonal raw materials. A seductive and exquisite collection of dishes, among which the impressive red shrimp croquette with smoked chipotle or the exceptional roe deer loin with juniper, redcurrants and beetroot stand out. Dishes made with the finest ingredients and a great deal of love that tell a story of tradition and innovation.
Visiting Per Se Bistró means going on an unforgettable gastronomic journey that we can enjoy step by step through its impeccable tasting menu. A solemn proposal that has been designed to surprise and conquer the most sybaritic palates with the best recipes from Madrigal. An honest and meticulous cuisine that reflects the long international career of Andrés, who has now decided to return to his origins to delight us with his passion for gastronomy. Under the motto of ‘good food and good service’, Per Se Bistró offers a memorable sensory experience that goes beyond the limits of purely gastronomic.
Our evening at Per Se Bistró kicked off with a sensational aperitif. Colourful and fun, in the form of an irresistible coriander and jalapeño cremita accompanied by some eye-catching red corn tortilla chips that provided a perfect crunch to this delicious welcome detail that led to some impressive red shrimp croquettes, with smoked chipotle and a béchamel base that are a true gastronomic jewel. A formidable explosion of flavour in the mouth, with an extremely creamy texture that led us to some exotic vegetable gyozas with red curry and pico de gallo that won us over with their spicy touch before taking us straight to the vegetable garden with artichokes with red pepper and celeriac. A simple but powerful recipe, which we enjoyed from start to finish, before surrendering to the delicious flavour of the mock mellow rice with octopus, white prawns, rouille and parmesan, which made us gobble up every last spoonful.
Andrés suggested that we continue with the duck with orange sauce. A resounding success that will make us come back very soon and that culminated in the final sweet moment with a curious dessert based on coconut, mango and lychees with a crunchy touch of a delicious pavlova. The perfect finishing touch, fresh and light, which helped to cleanse the palate and always makes digestion easier.
Per Se Bistró extols the richness of the product thanks to Madrigal’s creativity and the magic of the best seasonal products. A must for the most demanding palates in the heart of Madrid.
