The best torrezno in Madrid that Paquita Salas would approve of

Castilian gastronomy is full of hearty and delicious delicacies that would bring a dead man back to life. And if we’re talking about one of the most popular, the beloved torreznos, it’s not always easy to find a bar where the balance between crunchiness, juiciness and flavour is perfect. This is certainly the case at El Quillo, a bar in Getafe run by a young team eager to innovate - but without losing sight of tradition - which has just been awarded the prize for the best torrezno in the Madrid region by Marca de Garantía Torrezno de Soria (Torrezno de Soria Guarantee Brand).

In this bar specialising in cachopos, these succulent morsels of fried bacon stand out for their intense flavour, their pleasant texture in the mouth, their perfect size and a presentation that definitely appeals to the eye. On 10 March they will compete in the national final. Don’t wait to order your portion of torreznos for €12.90, and treat yourself to a Paquita Salas with Larios gin included.
