A few months ago, in an interview given to Network Channel, Pablo Iglesias, founder of the Podemos political party and former vice president of the government, commented at the doors of the Congress of Deputies that he was thinking of setting up “a place where people can also go to see those of us who work at Canal Red eat and drink.”
Asking in that interview if “in Madrid there would be a restaurant for reds,” it seems that Iglesias was clear that there was a market niche where he also speculated about what “those from Bildu will have to go somewhere to eat.”
Commenting that it should have “the appearance of an old bar”, those promises of Pablo Iglesias have ended up materializing and have given rise to the formation of Taberna Garibaldi, which will open its doors in the Lavapiés neighborhood, at number 8 Ave María Street on March 19. Occupy, for those who know the area, the old location of The Dinosaur was still there.
With a snack menu and dishes to share where it has also become true display of creativity With the names, Taberna Garibaldi aims to recover that spirit of a tavern and tavern that was so popular in Madrid.
Among the references that have already been discovered are a Salmorejo Partisano, some enchiladas 'Viva Zapata' or some cheeks called 'Brigada Garibaldi'. There are also some vegan dish offers which are included in a section called 'Don't call me Veal'.
Beers, wines – with a strong presence of Argentine and Chilean references – and some cocktails are the Drinkable offer from Taberna Garibaldiwhere they have also used cocktail classics and a very political nomenclature with the Fidel Mojito, which emulates the classic Cuban mojito, also passing through the Ché Daiquiri, the Gramsci negroni or the Pasionaria Puerto de Valencia.
What we have also verified is that, despite not having opened, they have already the first reviews appeared either hate you to the Iglesias project which, even unopened, already appears in Google Reviews as of March 15 with a score of 2.5 stars out of 5.
