A visit to Casa
Botin, claiming to be the world's oldest restaurant (founded in
1725), is like traveling back in time. Located in Old Madrid, this
spot was a favorite of Hemmingway. The open kitchen still has an
18th century wood-burning oven that cooks the house specialty of
Castilian roast lamb. It has four dining rooms with copper pans
and oil paintings surrounded by exposed beams. Live regional music,
performed by student minstrels in black coats, fills the air after
midnight.
