Back to Blogging!!!! π
So nice to be back after a crazy summer….this is my new themed topic. I’m going to tell you all where you can go in Madrid to enjoy a lil piece of my homeland!!! π
These are the places I go to when I’m feeling a lil homesick or I’ve got a lil craving for something from good ole Ameri-cuh! π
Let’s start out with Markets selling all things American in Madrid….this first one is one of my favs!
TASTE OF AMERICA
They have several locations but I always go to the one on Serrano.
C/Serrano, 149
28002 – Madrid (Metro: Republica Argentina-L6)
34.91.411.46.42
Or they have one in Pozuelo de Alarcon as well.
I always go here to stock up on Pancake Mix and Maple Syrup, BBQ Sauce and Peanut Butter and other lil knick-knacks that make me feel like Im back at home.
As far as I know all of the staff speak both English and Spanish.
I know that there is another Market in Madrid as well, but I haven’t been to it yet because the location before was way outside of the city centre…..but I think they have finally caught onto the fact that the Americans tend to live more towards the centre of Madrid and don’t want to have to travel half-way across the city to get some Cherry Coke or Betty Crocker.
I haven’t tried it out yet, but it seems to be quite close to my house so I’m gonna have to make a lil stop by there ASAP.
Here is some info on this market….
