Mercado San Antón

9 Best Markets in Madrid | Condé Nast Traveler

"More geared toward gourmet grazing than grocery shopping, the stylish Mercado de San Antón, in the heart of Chueca, lures locals and tourists alike with its three floors of Spanish and international food stalls. It's as polished and pleasant as Mercado de San Miguel but draws half the tourists, meaning you won't have to wade through the fanny-packed hordes to get a beer. Try to seek out the papas arrugadas ("wrinkly potatoes") slathered with green (cilantro) and red (mild chili) mojo sauces from 7 Delicatessen. You won't find a better rendition of this Canary Islands specialty in the Spanish capital." - Benjamin Kemper
