| This restaurant is located in the North of
the city, in the Aristos hotel. Its modern decor is very appealing. The dining
room is olive green with a large skylight in the middle and the kitchens, which
can be seen, are at the back of the restaurant. The chef, businessman and
hotel manager Juan Pablo Felipe won the National Prize for Gastronomy in 2001
(the restaurant has received endless prizes in the past). Today he is one of the
most successful architects of creative and innovative cuisine in Madrid. Originally
from Cadiz he has brought with him his knowledge of many local dishes such as
''atún de almadraba'' as well as his interest in wines, sherries
and different types of oils... El Chaflán has one Michelin star.
The aperitifs are very imaginative and the menu has some attractive options especially
the fish dishes. Everything is prepared using only the best quality ingredients. Over
500 wines on the wine list. Juan Pablo Felipe is also the manager of the
Palacio Miraflores Hotel Restaurant in Miraflores de la Sierra (49 kms
from Madrid). A catering service is also available. You can often find special
deals for the hotel and restaurant for summer breaks and weekends... |
