The 38 Essential Madrid Restaurants
"Cheesecake may be more associated with Basque country up north, but plenty of Madrileños like Alex Cordobés are also ecstatic about the famous dessert. After leaving his job as a physiotherapist, Cordobés began selling cheesecake to go, eventually growing his business into this namesake shop in the Salamanca neighborhood. His cakes are creamy and soft, planted on a butter cookie base and well-toasted to make the most of the Maillard reaction. Cordobés stages the treats in an exquisite store as if they were pieces of art." - Paula Móvil
