Exactly!

The dining spot that I love in the Ponzano area that may or may not be on your radar is LAKASA.
While not on Calle Ponzano, it’s close by, around the corner on a large square, Plaza Descubridor Diego de Ordás. It’s one of my favorite Madrid bistrots.

This is where we could happily dine once a week, and one that we try to include on our “ponzaning” (what Madrileños call doing a food and drink crawl on Calle Ponzano). Food critics love it, the chef is both very talented and tireless, and his wife is French, so count on excellent mussels and a fine French cheese board from Bernard Antony for dessert.

I see that La Primera opens at 9.30 am. Would I be able to have the tortilla and cheese cake for breakfast there?

Also, what are their other specialties?

Thanks

We’ve had tortilla for breakfast there but I don’t know about the cheesecake.

Their other specialties: croquetas, pudín de cabracho, rabas (what calamares are called in Cantabria),
buñuelos de bacalao, merluza, flan
