Dive

I'm not one to go to "dives." When I peek inside each small, crowded place there is just nothing that screams at me to come into the restaurant. Sometime last week my boyfriend researched the best pizza in Madrid and it brought us to Pizzeria El Trebol, a complete dive. Deciding I was going to change my ways I stepped in without a word and took a seat. It was for sure a dive (the whole place only seats ten people maximum) but the bar pizzas that came from the kitchen were more than delicious. After a week of knowing the little pizzeria I am already a regular and have been there three times in the past week! Do you usually dine in dives?

so yummy

On most late nights or pizza, vino (wine), and television series dates - my newest addiction is Desperate Housewives- my favorite thing is of course pizza. My newest craving is Pizza al cuadrado where they know me by name as I now have become a regular who craves their delicious slices like the rest of my neighborhood. The line is usually out the door but each slice is worth waiting for. Each pizza creation is made on a huge sleet and is cut with scissors (its the cutest thing ever) by how much you are able to eat then weighed for price. Each night I come I'm excited to see which pizza creations are hot out of the oven and ready for me to enjoy. My favorites lately have been the spicy tomatoes cherries with no sauce and the zucchini with parmesan. But they have many other creative pies like potato, gorgonzola, and pine nuts; nameko mushroom and fresh mozzerella that also call my name. I swear each time I go in they even have some of their own creations freshly made and I love the excitement of seeing what they create and which I will devour next.
