This isn’t just any aperitivo. It’s a way of life. 🍅

In Spain, Pa amb tomàquet (or pan con tomate) is more than a dish—it’s a daily ritual that’s been enjoyed for generations. With just four simple ingredients—crusty bread, ripe tomato, garlic and extra virgin olive oil—it proves that exceptional ingredients don’t need much to shine.

How local? Just a few steps from rooftop to table. 🚶🌱
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our Padron Peppers (aka shish*to peppers) served at Madrina are grown in EL CATRIN DESTILERIA’s rooftop garden before being blistered and finished with paprika, lemon zest and saffron aioli.

It doesn’t get much more local than this! 📍
