Malasaña revisited

Great ideas are what makes this world go round, even if they are little great ideas.

So that´s it!, last Saturday we went out around Malasaña. Visited some great bars, some more famous, some more bizarre.



Started out in a little unknown bar called Pablu´s (Luchana st, 12, Madrid), a very dark place, with great Spanish music from the 80-90´s and very interesting people to meet. I had some really great moments there, and I really recommend it.
Moving into the party zone, Tupperware (Corredera alta de San Pablo, 26) is a bar/pub with, what a believe it´s a great kitsch decoration: old TVs with action figures and toys from the 50-60´s inside, Naranjito figures, a roof full of big eyes that keep staring at you, murals of superheros and Ziggy Stardust and a wall where they project some old movies (last Saturday was The Rocky horror picture house). And then the music!, great indie rock-pop and some classics. Sometimes it gets a little crowded for me, but it´s a wonderful place to dance if you get enough space for that.
Just by the Tupperware, El Penta, what a bar!, I mean, I love that place, it´s dark and they play great music (mainly Spanish hits). In its walls Antonio Vega´s lyrics and pictures. It brings back good memories for me. And even if you have to queue for a while in order to get in, it´s worth it. I like it when they are closing and they always play "La chica de ayer" by Antonio Vega.

To end the night out, Moby Dick Club (Av de Brasil, 5). I can´t be objective about it. I love it. I usually go there about twice a month, it´s like home to me. The music, the DJs, the barmans and I don´t now, just the people that goes there.It´s wonderful. And I´ve always had great moments there. Besides that, I live really near, which makes it almost perfect!
(NOTE: the MobyDick club is not in Malasaña)

What a night!
Well, that was the great idea!
What do you think?
