If you’re heading to Madrid with kids (or with parents who have a sweet tooth), you might appreciate a tip on an unconventional ice cream shop. La Pecera specializes in serving soft-serve ice cream in freshly baked waffle cones.
The cone shaped like a fish is actually a Japanese treat called taiyaki. It’s made from regular waffle batter, which is poured into a mold and baked until golden brown. You can choose to have your cone made with either vanilla or cocoa flavor.
🇪🇸 Tip: For football fans ⚽, I recommend a tour of the Real Madrid stadium (I enjoyed it too, and I actually prefer hockey 😉). A visit to the Prado Museum or the Royal Palace is also fantastic. Be sure to buy tickets in advance and avoid waiting in line.
The soft-serve ice cream can be vanilla, chocolate, yogurt/mango, or other flavors depending on the daily selection. As for toppings, you can choose caramel, Nutella, white or dark chocolate, and you can also sprinkle cookies or other sweets on top.
A serving of taiyaki cone ice cream with topping and sprinkles costs approximately 5 EUR.
Bon appétit!
