Autumn is not so bad. The fall of the leaf brings with it new pleasures for the palate such as mushrooms, artichokes, pumpkin or game, and also new gastronomic fairs where to discover the different flavors of our land. If you have a great gourmet appetite, we will prepare an à la carte menu with culinary appointments that you should not miss in the coming months.

The gastronomic festival will be Millesime, from October 1 to 3. Some of the best Spanish chefs will meet in the Madrid pavilion of La Pipa de la Casa de Campo to propose us two unavoidable events: Spanishleart, a concept that collects and praises Spanish gastronomy, fashion and architecture; and Millweek (from 4 to 6), a new concept open to the public that was born with the aim of bringing haute cuisine to all budgets.
