A morning of museum hopping left us hungry on the streets of Madrid. We popped into a sidewalk cafe for a bit of nourishment. We started with skewers of olives and anchovies and small croquettes filled with jamón serrano. So delicious.

The next dish wowed us completely. In fact, two bites into a plate of escalivada salad over fried potatoes, then topped with a fried egg, had us declaring this our next holiday breakfast at home.
