La Fisna Vinos

SPAIN

  • Rule of thumb in Spain: find a tapas bar locals love, go lots.
  • La Fisna Vihnos is our Madrid go to (as often as we can).
  • Too many tapas to try in one sitting – the tortilla’s particularly crave-worthy.
  • Take advice on the wine – the list is long and kind of extraordinary.

  • On top of the heliotopos hotel
  • When’s a cave not a cave? When it’s a rooftop bar with caldera view, of course.
