Naia

Naia is a delightful bistro in the Plaza de la Paja in Madrid, a bright and spacious restaurant with contemporary yet rustic touches. Wooden floorboards and mismatched chairs add to the fresh ambience, quite in keeping with the Mediterranean cuisine that they offer. Diners can enjoy the colourful views of blossoming trees outside the large windows, while there's also a terrace option for those wishing to dine al fresco.

The list of starters brings such tasty morsels such as Iberian ham croquettes with caramelised peppers or thin slices of duck foie gras with Ruby port reduction and toasted spices. For the main meal, you could choose a salad of buffalo mozzarella with semi sweet tomatoes and basil oil but those looking for something more substantial could opt for the organic beef burger. Seafood lovers would not want to miss the tuna tartare marinated in ginger and lime or the cod confit with braised apple aioli. To finish, there's a mango cheesecake with cassis sorbet.
