Com o objectivo de visitar o Real Jardim Botânico, parámos no bar de tapas La Taperia que fica bastante perto da entrada.
Localizado na Plaza Platería de Martinez (ao lado da Embaixada da República da Síria), tem uma excelente esplanada fora (que não utilizámos justamente porque havia uma manifestação em frente á referida embaixada cujo ruído iria tornar a refeição muito desagradável) e um interior renovado.
Aiming to visit the Royal Botanical Gardens, we stopped at the tapas bar La Taperia which is close to the entrance.
Located in Plaza Platería Martinez (next to the Embassy of the Republic of Syria), has a great terrace outside (which we did not use precisely because there was a demonstration in front of the embassy whose noise would not make the meal very unpleasant) and an renovated interior.

Tinha consultado o seu website e a ementa parecia ter excelente aspecto. Fomos comprovar e não saímos desiludidos. Não é um restaurante barato se consideramos o que cobram por pinchos (entre 4€ e 5€) e tapas (entre 5€ a 12€) mas a verdade é que tudo o que comemos estava bom, saboroso. No fim da ementa está o nome do "chef" que assina as tapas, o que significa que não entrámos numa taberna qualquer.
I had seen their website and the menu seemed great. We went there to taste it and were not disappointed. Not a cheap restaurant if we consider what they charge for pinchos (between € 4 and € 5) and tapas (from 5 € to 12 €) but the truth is that everything we ate was good and tasty. At the end of the menu is the name of the "chef" who signs the tapas, which means that we were not in a bad place.
Pedimos dois pinchos: o de Solomillo de porco ibérico com cebola caramelizada e um patê de oca (que acredito que seja ganso porque só me lembrava do Jogo da Oca italiano) e outro com queijo de cabra. Ambos óptimos e com vontade de repetir.
A tapa que pedimos acabou por ser o prato mais caro mas não necessáriamente o melhor, não estava mau mas os outros dois estavam tão bons que perdeu protagonismo, pedimos o Cocktail de gambas com guacamole de ervilhas (excelente opção para quem não gosta de abacate), surimi de caranguejo e patê de azeitonas.
Para sobremesa pedimos um Cheesecake, também ele delicioso nota-se que foi bem confeccionado, mas não dá para "compartir" é demasiado pequeno e por 5€ pedia-se uma porção maior, a base tinha o tamanho de uma bolacha Maria (talvez um pouco maior mas não muito mais).
Repetiria sem dúvida e tem uma localização excelente, está próximo do Museo do Prado e do Reina Sofia.
We ordered two pinchos: the Solomillo of Iberian pork with caramelized onion and goose patê with and another one of goat cheese. Both great and willing to repeat.
The tapa we ordered turned out to be the most expensive dish but not necessarily the best, was not bad but the other two were so good that lost protagonism, we ordered the prawn cocktail with pea guacamole (excellent option for those who do not like avocado) surimi crab pate and olives.
For dessert we ordered a Cheesecake, also delicious it was well made, but you can not "share" it because it is too small and for 5 € it should be a larger portion, the base was the size of a Maria biscuits (perhaps a slightly larger but not much more).
I would undoubtedly repeat it has a great location, is near the Museo del Prado and the Reina Sofia.
