Last October, the renowned chef Oscar Portal surprised us with a new project in the heart of Madrid. Located at number three on the Madrilenian street of Montalb\u00e1n, near the emblematic El Retiro Park, Taberna Linaza awaits us with a sensational gastronomic proposal centered around quality. An honest cuisine where the best seasonal products take shape in seductive preparations that we can enjoy both in its more informal bar area and in its main dining room when we can do so in a more relaxed manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taberna Linaza has two different menus that adapt to these two spaces, featuring a selection of traditional dishes with well-executed French influences. Classic recipes to which \u00d3scar Portal has added his personal touch reach their peak when paired with the magnificent wines that make up their carefully curated cellar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The success of his restaurant, Volea, located in the Madrid town of Pozuelo de Alarc\u00f3n, which opened three years ago, has encouraged Portal to make the leap to the capital with this new opening that will delight food lovers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During our first visit to Taberna Linaza, we started by savoring incredibly creamy ham croquettes with romesco sauce, which gave us the best possible welcome before being captivated by a surprising Russian salad with red prawn in garlic that is a true spectacle. Fine, delicate, and resolute, it led us directly to sensational charcoal-grilled artichokes with Payoyo cheese that are a true delight. A balanced and perfect combination that conquered our palate before moving on to try some fun confit green piquillo peppers with Cusumano bonito crowned with grilled razor clams and Pedro Xim\u00e9nez vinaigrette. A striking preparation that does not disappoint in taste and led to their already famous Linaza baby squid served on an exquisite sauce made with anchovies, cream, parsley, and thyme. The sauce was so delicious that we ended up eating it by the spoonful. Enough said… simply amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
