The legendary Madrid

[BjornAgain]

Are the old photo's on display, or can you ask to see them? As would be interesting to see if my dad is in any of them.

Jennny, the proprietor of Madrid, confirmed to Floridarob and me tonight that she was careful to take all the historical photos and momentous from the Patpong location before moving to new digs.Amd she said to tell Vinapu she’s looking forward to preparing Vinapu’s favorite pizza (shallots) upon his much anticipated return.

Is that in 2029?

Glad and amazed she remembers my favorite selection. Not only cherry tomato and shallots pizza but also Chang in the bottle, no glass, proletarian way

Not in display in restaurant but safely secured elsewhere.

There’s some artwork inspired by the restaurant’s name, giving the place the feel of Madrid.

This is Jenny with painting of her mother who ruled over the Madrid during those early days.

Thanks for the update. Will ensure to make a trip when next up in BKK and enquire further.

And the pizza pics.... she doesn't do the jumbo pizza at the new location, which I miss, being a size queen 🙄

@TotallyOz was the one that introduced me to Madrid, it wouldn't have been a place I'd walk into judging from the storefront appearance and location.

Oh, she also said to call to make sure she is there and open as she travels from time to time.

Reader treated me to dinner there, what a guy. Then since we both like to walk, 25-30 minutes up Silom with a detour on Soi 6 to look at the massage shops 😉
