Bar Madrid @ Jaya 1

Bar Madrid

This is a new place in Jaya 1 that replaces the old bar Two Monkeys. I guess Two Monkeys is not monkeying well enough to sustain it's business and thus it was closed down. Bar Madrid takes over with a new bold red exterior and interior serving spanish tapas and drinks. This new place is just right opposite Brussels Bar.

My friends and I went over to try its tapas since we have time to kill before dinner at Cubes. Sebastian is one of the partners and do you know that he's also a qualified sommelier and a wine consultant?

Charming Sebastian Le Francois

They do serve German beers like Paulaner Natur and Weihenstephan Weissl. And we started with a glass of Sparkling Rose Cava from Spain.....

Lavit Rosado Brut

We did a few dishes - all recommended by Sebastian himself.

Champinones Al Atillo
Sauteed mushroom with garlic (RM13.90)

Jamon Serrano with Cheese
(Off the menu)

Gambas Salteadas
Sauteed prawns (RM20)

Pescado Ahumado
Smoked Butter Fish on Baguette (RM12.90)

Tapas range from RM8 - RM20. Cheese & Spanish cold cut platters are available at RM30.90-33.90. They do serve the spanish specialty hams like Jamon Serrano and Jamon Iberico which are all around RM20-40. I find the tapas quite tasty but still not as good as my favourite tapas outlet which I will disclose later if I'm in the mood to tell....

This place is worth a visit considering that it's out of the hustle bustle of KL city centre and it's easy to get a parking at Jaya One. After tapas, we adjourned for our dinner at Cubes before going back to bar Madrid for a night cap.
