Fodor's Expert Review La Colmada

$ Malasaña Dinner

The first thing you'll notice about this teeny seafood-centric tapas bar is its bright blue walls, a nod to the sea. Sure, you could cobble together a full meal from the menu of delectable cheeses, cured sausages, hams, and conservas (canned seafood; seek out La Pureza and Ana María brands), but La Colmada is better suited to casual, booze-fueled snacking. In love with a certain cheese or chorizo? The staff will happily sell you a goodie bag.
