  • When you have a chance to eat at the World's Oldest Restaurant, you eat there! I'm not sure what we thought this experience was going to be like but it was one of the highlights of Madrid, Spain. It was a very particular and unique experience. We booked a tour and 5 course meal with Insider's Travel, a tour company in Madrid. It was pricey at 165 Euros, but so worth it. An average meal there is around 60 per person and this did include 5 courses, wine and a tour of the entire restaurant before anyone else arrived. There were 10 people including us, on the tour.
    Botin is a living history museum. The menu and much of the restaurant haven't changed since opening in 1725. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and gave an excellent tour. The staff were all so accommodating and even invited me in to take pictures.
    I can't say enough good things about this experience!
    Now, on to the food. The hipe around the food being so god was hard for me to believe. Especailly since they don't ever change their menu and they are working in a kitchen that has been around for some 300 years. But, the food was amazing! The roasted suckling pig is unlike any pork dish you have had and the broth they serve with it will make you want to lick your plate! It REALLY is that good!

      It is the oldest in terms of continual business, same owners, same name, same menu, etc. I do believe there are some restaurants that are older but didn't meet all the criteria that the Guieness World record people wanted.

    Mickey Mouse was also a guest at Botin! I'll try to make paintings at restaurants I go to. Perhaps, they'd keep it and display it. It might sell for a million dollars decades later 😆😅
    My gosh! Eating there must be a treat...a real treat! So many Spanish foods have influenced Filipino dishes, like the suckling pig (which is the lechon in the Philippines). I'd like to go there just to see how Spain's suckling pig fares to this Filipina's palette. I trust it would be just as good as ours. And I'll take your tip not to eat breakfast if I plan to go there! ☺😁
