The aperitif is not just a break to eat something before lunch; it’s a ritual, a way of life that connects us with the true pleasure of enjoyment. At our bars, this moment becomes a daily celebration that blends the best of tradition with culinary creativity. September 19, World Aperitif Day, is the perfect occasion to pay tribute to this classic ritual.

The Bar: The Heart of the Aperitif

Our bars aren’t just meeting points; they are where stories begin. Where the sound of a drink being poured and the clinking of cutlery greet you. At Tragabuches, local ingredients, carefully selected, are transformed into small bites full of flavor. From classic olives and toasted almonds to a selection of cured meats and artisanal cheeses, the aperitif at our bars has a special charm.

On September 19, we invite you to come to our bars to celebrate World Aperitif Day, where simplicity becomes extraordinary. A perfectly poured beer or perhaps a house vermouth? Here, every sip tells a story, and every bite invites you to discover something new. Our team knows the secrets to making this moment unforgettable.

At Tragabuches, we pay homage to tradition while always looking to the future. From our bar, we offer a reinterpretation of the aperitif, with innovative touches that surprise.

Andalucía on the table: Tragabuches’ daily menu to take a midweek journey to the South with every bite. The menu, designed to enjoy a lunch full of Southern flavors, is available from Monday to Friday at noon in Madrid and Marbella.

Highlights include starters like the cherry gazpacho, fresh cheese, pistachios, and basil (1998) or the famous pringá del puchero in a croquette, and main dishes such as the noodle stew with white shrimp, tuna, and clams, or the carne mecha in its own jus with oloroso wine.

Where it all began

In 1998, the Tragabuches concept was born in Ronda, Málaga, with the sole objective of becoming the first KM0 restaurant, where the product was the main protagonist of its gastronomic offering.

Twenty-five years later, chef Dani García continues cooking Southern flavors with his most authentic eatery in Madrid and Marbella, presenting a culinary proposal perfect for midweek enjoyment.

Tragabuches brings to the table dishes that are part of Andalusia’s culinary tradition, where each ingredient has a unique identity and comes from specific farms and producers with a story behind them. With flavors of home and family, they launch the “Andalucía on the Table” menu, perfect for enjoying a Southern-flavored lunch from Monday to Friday, 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM.

The Menu

The menu, designed by Dani García, showcases seasonal products and begins with a choice of starters, such as the famous cherry gazpacho with fresh cheese, pistachios, and basil (1998), Russian salad with slices of acorn-fed Iberian ham, salmorejo, venison and pork country pâté, or a lovely Andalusian tomato salad.

It continues with a selection of hot appetizers, such as the famous pringá del puchero in a croquette, fried cod tortilla, fried egg with migas rondeñas, Iberian ham croquettes, carne mecha in its own jus with oloroso wine, or grilled leek with roasted pepper sauce and crudités.

Main dishes include highlights like blood sausage and razor clam rice, noodle stew with white shrimp, tuna, and clams, grilled picanha with green pepper sauce and fries, or grilled marinated chicken thigh with fries.

To finish, enjoy almond and red berry tart, egg flan, or the delicious cheesecake.

A menu to savor Andalusia with every bite and take a journey to the South through the most exquisite dishes.

At Leña, the art of grilling meat over fire is a constant celebration. A fundamental part of this experience lies in the cuts of meat, which are served with utmost respect for the product, making each visit a unique culinary journey. We invite you to discover three of the most special cuts on our menu: the old cow ribeye, the veal porterhouse, and the veal tomahawk.

Old Cow Ribeye: Unique Flavor and Texture

One of the most cherished treasures for meat lovers is the old cow ribeye. At Leña, we treat this cut with almost reverential respect. It comes from cows that have lived long and healthy lives, which translates into much more intense flavor, thanks to the time the fat has had to infiltrate the muscles. The ribeye is known for its marbling, that intricate network of fat that, when melted, infuses the meat with an unparalleled flavor. Its texture is juicy, tender, yet with character. This cut is ideal for those seeking deep, authentic flavor.

Veal Porterhouse: Two Cuts in One

The veal porterhouse strikes the perfect balance between two worlds. It’s a cut that combines the best of two pieces: the tenderloin and the sirloin. In the center, a small but firm portion of bone separates both cuts, adding extra flavor during cooking. At Leña, we grill the porterhouse with precise care to highlight the unique characteristics of each part. The tenderloin, soft and delicate, melts in your mouth, while the sirloin, slightly firmer, maintains that bit of resistance that makes it even more satisfying. This cut is perfect for those who want the best of both worlds on one plate.

Veal Tomahawk: The King of the Grill

Impressive in size and presence, the veal tomahawk is much more than a cut of meat—it’s a sensory experience. This cut is named after the Native American tomahawk due to its long bone, giving it a rustic and primitive appearance, yet with an unmistakable sophistication in flavor. The tomahawk is essentially a bone-in ribeye, and at Leña, each of its attributes is enhanced. Here, the slow fire and expert technique transform this piece into a masterpiece: meat with an incredibly juicy texture, deeply flavorful, and an invitation to enjoy it with all your senses.

The Art of Fire at Leña

At Leña, each of these cuts is carefully selected and treated with the respect it deserves. It’s not just about serving high-quality meat but bringing it to its full potential through fire, an element as primal as it is sophisticated, which Leña masters to perfection. Each ember adds a smoky touch that enriches the meat, while the technique controls the precise cooking point to elevate the experience with every bite.

Whether you prefer the intensity of the old cow ribeye, the versatility of the veal porterhouse, or the majesty of the tomahawk, at Leña, you will find the perfect cut for every palate.

From our bar, always lively, we invite you to come and enjoy in our bar. Accompanied, of course, with the best of our seafood cuisine.

The pleasure of beers with Andalusian essence

And if you are in Madrid or Marbella, you can not miss Tragabuches. Here, the concept of the caña goes beyond.
