Should you make Christmas lunch or dinner? Don’t worry, because you’re going to leave the kitchen aside. You focus on the decoration of the table, the setting of the room and the look you will wear. On this occasion, whether Christmas Eve dinner or New Year’s mealthe heaters are closed for vacations.
In less than two days you will have your well-deserved vacation and you will not have time to cook. During these days you go on a trip, celebrate Christmas with friends and go to the fashionable place in Madrid to eat the grapes on New Year’s Eve. So there is no time to think about what the menu will look like and what the gastronomic preferences of your guests are. The only reason you get stressed is because of the set selection. Sequins or total black look? It’s a complicated answer and this time we’re going to help you with another mission.
In the following gallery you will know which restaurants are trends and a Home service. With the following recommendations you will have no problem and can bring to the table typical Japanese dishes, a freshly made potato omelet or a schnitzel with truffle egg. Everything is valid on these dates. The most important thing is to enjoy a good time with the people around you and enjoy the time together.
Basically, if you know the following restaurants, you have the full menu. In addition, you leave out the most typical dishes such as smoked salmon with egg, baked lamb or shrimp cocktail. On the 24th, 25th or 31st are the guests eating a ramen, butter fish tacos or a pumpkin cream pizza. There is no place for fast food here, because it is a tasty diet, where the raw material is very important. All sites want you to experience the explosion of flavors.
What will be the final decision? Only you know, but we recommend mixing up all the sites. So your table will be multicultural and there will be all kinds of food. No one will leave hungry.
Who doesn’t love a freshly cooked homemade tortilla? Everyone, and therefore, it is best to order a full portion (with or without onion) this Christmas. Forget about peeling potatoes and spending hours in the kitchen. You can put this dish on the table for your guests in less than half an hour.
We can’t explain much more about 80 Degree that you don’t already know. Even though you may not have tried their delivery service yet. Your entire menu is available to enjoy your mini dishes at home. Russian salad, salmon tartare, cold ratatouille, Iberian ham croquettes, the iconic truffle egg or creamy gnocchi. This way you save time and spend it looking for the best look for that evening.
Not everything has to be fried seafood, meat or fish. At the table you can order, among other things, the famous Armando schnitzels. We recommend the menu for two people. You have a schnitzel of 40 cm, four ham croquettes, potato omelette, straw potatoes and French toast. This is ideal to have the starters ready and an original dessert.
GoXO is already known for its haute cuisine dishes at home, but have you ever imagined serving these dishes at Christmas? Start by looking at their catalog and know the wide variety they have. However, David Muñoz’ team was clear that offering a home menu for these dates would be a success and they created two. What’s in the New Year’s Eve package? Seafood soup, guinea fowl cannelloni, hyper tender white veal shank and Pedroche cheesecake.
We already warned you that you can find all kinds of food here. Our goal was that you don’t cook and we are going to achieve that. In Hevia 1964 you have everything a classic Christmas menu has, but focused on Andalusian gastronomy. Russian salad, meatballs with potatoes, Iberian ham croquettes, flamenquines or anchovies in vinegar.
Where is the best steak in Madrid? You wouldn’t imagine it, but it’s in a restaurant in Paris. L’entrecote Cafe de París is the place where everyone goes and now they have a home delivery service. This type of food is perfect for Christmas meals, after Christmas Eve dinner. Don’t forget to ask for their famous sauce and potatoes.
Winter is the best time to eat a stew with friends, partner or with friends. So start by reserving the stew and don’t miss it on the table at Christmas or New Year. Where do you need to go? Without a doubt to Malacatín. This mythical space has adapted to changing times and you have the option to reserve a stew with everything you bring. You start with a noodle soup, chickpeas, pointed cabbage, a whole chicken and a delicious cumin tomato sauce.
Do you want to be original during Christmas lunch or dinner? Choose all dishes that are in Hong Kong 70. It becomes difficult to choose and we have made a selection of everything that should be on your table. Scallop with sauce, crispy strips of beef, fried sea bass, guo-tie filled with crispy chicken, WON-TON filled with pork and shrimp or Hong Kong style roasted duck. This year you will leave everyone with their mouths open, because they will not find the classic lamb.
Say goodbye to the typical stew or fish soup. It’s time to take a trip around Japan and have lunch or dinner, an authentic ramen. If you want to fulfill this mission, don’t hesitate to ask for Ramen Kagura. Japanese pumpkin croquette, octopus balls, chicken and vegetable dumplings and their famous ramen. If you try one of their dishes you will understand why there are so many people queuing up every day.
Of course sushi could not be missing in this list, but quality sushi prepared by an authentic Japanese woman. Yoka is the owner of Yokaloka and the culprit of our passion for bluefin tuna nigiri or schooling fish with truffles; or the varied sashimi that has it all. Surprise your guests and celebrate the arrival of 2023 with a dinner where sushi plays the leading role.
After recommending Japanese or French eateries, the gastronomy of Mexico could not be missed. Everyone loves tacos, but they are sold in fast food franchises. They are tacos cooked by chefs and where the raw material stands out, without forgetting the explosion of flavors. Our favorites are the tamarind chipotle glazed bacon tacos; Iberian Pluma Tacos with Sobrasada, Drunken Sauce and Mexican Cotija Cheese; yellow sea bass and shrimp ceviche with macha sauce; or Tikin-Xic butter fish tacos with chile de árbol sauce.
Pizza at Christmas or New Year’s Eve? Of course they do, especially if they are from the Napoli Gang. It’s our favorite pizzeria in Madrid, mainly because it’s owned by the owners of Bel Mondo or Villa Capri. Here you must order the calabacheese pizza (pumpkin cream, pleural mushrooms, fiordilatte, rosemary and grated pecorino), truffle carbogang (portobello mushroom, grana padano, fior di latte, ricotta sauce with truffle and creamy carbonara sauce and chives) and cheese tartlet.
Yes, as you read, all Café Comercial food is available to take home. French oysters, eggs stuffed with tuna, prawns fried with ali oli potatoes, Iberian ham croquettes, tiger mussels or grilled vegetables with free-range eggs and truffle. These are some of the selections we love and always order when we go. Run! Don’t waste time and leave your guests wanting more. I’m sure you’ll be back in a few weeks, but to the restaurant.
Cristina Oria is the perfect solution that will not let you down this Christmas. Here’s the answer to what I serve my guests in the morning when they open Santa’s presents, or what are the best side dishes to share for the big New Year’s Eve dinner. Don’t waste time and order their mythical waffles, ham croquettes or burgers with foie cream.
