The Cerveceria Cruz Blanca of Madrid , part I !!!

Posted in Food and Wine, Madrid, Spain

This is back to memory lane ,and foodie me just love Madrid !! As I was with my boys and going to memorable places we have been with their mother ,my dear late wife Martine, we came back to usual places, Memories oblige we came to Cerveceria Cruz Blanca at two locations dear to me. This is new text and pictures in my blog from my latest trip there Therefore, here is my take on the Cerveceria Cruz Blanca of Madrid, part I !!! Hope you enjoy the post as I.

Cerveceria Cruz Blanca  redefines the concept of a brewery and recreates the old classical and chaste taverns that originated in the early 20C.  My visit have been to the property at Calle Dr Esquerdo  157 (near Conde de Casal) with a great terrace with two parts: one next to the semi-covered premises that has water sprinklers in summer and heating in winter and tables on the street in summer. The place is on the side of Dr Esquerdo where the sun shines in the afternoon so the best option is always with sprinklers in summer. This one have been on my business trips as stayed closed to the Ayre Gran Colon Hotel (now a Crown Plaza hotel).(see post)

This time took them to another memorable one and my first taste of the breweries at Calle Menendez Pelayo ,47 (across from Retiro park) .where I came walking and so did this time with the boys, by Sanz de Baranda metro stop. This one I came going to the Retiro park which is across the street, and found it at the corner of Calle Sainz de Baranda and Menenedez Pelayo, It was a hit so have come back again, and again this time, The friendly service, quick turnaround, good food and nice prices are it here!

Again, hope you enjoy the post on the Cerveceria Cruz Blanca of Madrid, part I  !!! as I.

I am a lover of travels to Europe , Americas , Africa and Asia as well ,who like to share my experiences of the last 53 years with the world, visiting so far 81 countries; living in 6, working in 5, and Citizen of 4, speaking fluently 4 languages. I can deal with sports especially football/soccer and love music, arts, wine collector/drinker, and go out to restaurants, and just visit the world. My background comes all the way from Candelaria and Pajara in Tenerife, Spain where my grandparents came from ;not knowing each other then, to Punta Brava, west of Havana, Cuba. There , my parents born in Cuba met and later on I was born there too. 100% guanche (annexed Tenerife to Spain on April 10 ,1496). I left Cuba as many have to Madrid, Spain where I lived for 4 years. Then, move to Perth Amboy ,New Jersey USA (living there 13 yrs) ; where I completed high school, became a US Citizen, learned to drive a car, and learned English. Afterward, went to the university in Florida, ERAU, and upon graduation decided to moved there to Ormond by the Sea, near Daytona Beach, finally moving North Miami, then Hialeah, then another moved to Silver Lakes division in Miramar, Broward county, Florida; in Florida I lived a total of 18 years. Finally , moved to France in 2003 ,Versailles call me for its royalty, and working in Paris was great. It was time to seek frontiers again and moved to Brech near Auray, Morbihan in Brittany , and later move to not too far Pluvigner. Total so far in France has been 20 years, and counting. Moving average a home every 5.5 years hopefully this will be my last. Cheers All rights reserved.
