You'll find this quiet oasis, decorated in wood, bright colours and extraordinary natural light, in the centre of the always bustling neighbourhood of Chueca. It's got a pleasant terrace in a little square that may not seem like much, but, under the shade of trees, you're in a great space for the brunch they serve up every weekend. They always have a battery of smoothies and home-made desserts on offer. The menu looks toward the Mediterranean and further afield, with seasonal starters such as gazpacho, and you'll find the likes of fish tartare, a variety of nigiris, pizzas, pasta dishes, salads... They always use fresh produce, and serve up light dishes, perfect for a casual get-together.
