"Madrid is one of the most vibrant and entertaining cities of Europe. For that reason, I have my second home there, in the best location, facing the Prado Museum. I love old and intact cities, the heritage of humanity, like Toledo and Cáceres, and in the meantime enjoying the tranquility of yesterday and the pleasures of today out in the country. And I love heading down south crossing the border in a zigzag to discover a nearby paradise, a kingdom of biodiversity. Two countries in a single journey, full of secrets and new experiences which I am delighted to unveil to and share with you."

Restaurant in town. Originally a private club, El Club Allard has preserved its unique atmosphere that provides everyone with the feeling of living a privileged moment.

The menus conceived by Dominican chef Maria Marte, who learned her trade in the establishment, are a genuine voyage for the taste buds. The dishes follow one after the other, creating surprises, such as the intense sea rice, an illusion of rice prepared with squid, or the poetic composition of double-textured cheese with guava sorbet. ...

Mario, Coque’s chef, experiments with innovative techniques such as the hydrolysis of an egg, the study of vegetable DNA and the extraction of polyphenols from wine. The unique and delicate flavours recall souvenirs of the past, a landscape — relying on the palate and nose, but also touch and imagination. Beginning in the wine cellar with Rafael, the sommelier, then continuing to the kitchen, the final touch is achieved with the dining room whose decor bears the signature of the prestigious architect Jean Porsche. ...
