Great Places to Eat on a Budget in Madrid Nº3

I've already mentioned the Secret Chinese below Plaza de España, and Despensa de Carmen on Calle Santiago. Both great value.

On a South American/Latino flavour (specifically Ecuador) try El Paso de Jean for a fabulous sit down menu of the day for just €8. Big hearty stews and soups - cream of pumpkin, fish caldo, pigs trotter caldo, creamy cheese vegetable stew. All delicious and garnished with a generous sprinkle of coriander. Followed by a fish, or meat course often served with lentils and rice, or creamed potato. Drink included with a choice of yoghurt, flan, or coffee to finish in a fun, friendly and lively Latino atmosphere.

Perfect now winter has arrived.

Another BIG sketch finds a home.

I really enjoy receiving emails with photographs of my sketches in their new home. I seem to have reached every corner of the World - all continents covered!

Here's a sketch that made it back to the States from Madrid.

The Lost Photographer on Youtube.

This is quite old now. Four years! But, it is still pretty much what I am doing when I don't have commissions, or other projects to be getting on with.
