The Sibarist

Chopsticks in hand and enjoy. Let’s visit some Asian restaurants in Madrid

Asian fever is here to stay. Open kitchens, flavors that explode in the mouth and dishes that combine tradition with the avant-garde. Because in Madrid you don't have to travel far to travel around the world in every bite.

Le Chinois

Asian cuisine is much more than sushi, dumplings or ramen. It is an art that plays with the senses, a journey that begins long before the first bite. It is the aroma of ginger and lime arousing curiosity, the sizzling sound of the wok setting the pace in the kitchen, the perfect balance between sweet, salty, sour and umami.

To eat at a good Asian restaurant is to let yourself go. Here, chopsticks are an extension of the hands and sake an accomplice wink that invites you to keep exploring. Because Asian cuisine is not eaten, it is lived. It is savored with the same intensity with which one discovers a new city: with eyes wide open, without haste, letting each nuance speak for itself. And in the end, when the last bite disappears, all that remains is the desire to start again.

A sensory journey without plane tickets. You just have to let yourself go.
