Between 11 and 11:30, you enjoy a second breakfast, something a bit more substantial. In the morning, you have coffee for energy and something sweet to quickly get you out the door to work. Pure, melted chocolate with a flaky biscuit to scoop it up with- the kids on the tour couldn’t have been happier!ĭuring breakfast, our guide Joy explained the Spanish eating schedule to us. We started with a typical Spanish breakfast- coffee and something sweet- melted spiced chocolate with a light biscuit for dipping.Īs I always mention, I don’t have much of a sweet tooth, but those on the tour who did went for seconds on this one. When he asked to go out on his own, she not only gave him permission but actually set him up in business- that should tell you how good this place is! The original owner was actually the queen’s personal baker. We quickly made introductions, and then we were off to our first stop- a pastry shop that has been in operation since 1855. It’s also an appropriate place to start a food tour, as it used to be a food market. This is great because even those unfamiliar with the city should be able to locate the large plaza. We started the day by meeting in Plaza Mayor, a central and easy-to-find spot. It’s like having a local friend take you around to all their favorite spots. I appreciate this because I enjoy discovering out-of-the-way places that have never been listed in guidebooks.
One thing I love about Devour is that they focus on partnerships with small or family businesses.
In fact, they are so popular that you can take tours with them not just in Madrid, but in many of the most popular cities throughout Spain. Devour Tours is known as the best food tour company in Spain. I chose to walk with Devour Tours, and I couldn’t have been happier with my choice. Spain is one of my favorite countries in the world, and foodie heaven, so I knew I had to do a walking food tour of Madrid during my visit. As I’m sure you all know by now, I love walking food tours.
