A couple doors over from the Salamanca location of Taberna La Daniela is another friendly, but less crowded cerveceria that is definitely worth visiting. The first thing to appreciate is that they have their specialties and are happy to direct you to them. One of the curiosities from Madrid's generally outstanding customer service is the sense of panic many bartenders get when you ask them for a recommendation. And, if you happen to have the slightest hint of a foreign accent in Spanish, they're going to direct you to jamon and tortilla española. Every time. That, and it can be very difficult to get your waiter's attention for a second round or the bill.
But, this little place is happy to offer suggestions. Our waitress was all over us, in a good way, with ideas for another tapa to try. When we were in the middle of an intense conversation, she even waited to interrupt us.
And the food was terrific. We munched on potato chips, albondigas (meatballs), and some toast with cheese, beef and peppers. We even ordered the tortilla, just to mix things up. Delish.
