The area around the Plaza de Toros (bullfighting ring) de Las Ventas is perfect for discovering castiza (authentic) cuisine and traditional flavors. Among the most succulent dishes and recipes that have been perfected over the years is the bull’s tail. Not only can you find it in stew, but in other forms like a hamburger. Many of the restaurants in Las Ventas are known for serving authentic dishes and are ideal for a good pintxos (appetizer) or for an abundant meal.
