Argensola street and its neighboring streets are my top favourites in Madrid. The only "danger" they have are their wonderful boutiques plenty of lovely stuff I would take without even trying them on. Since we are enjoying July weather in October, the streets are bursting with people having their coke and free chips outside. You can either find a group of students or a popular ex mayor happily eating their bowl of chips. I was so envious that I decided to call my beautiful friend Carmencita to join me and also check my new goodies. The best place to have a drink after 8 o'clock in Argensola is Whitby. A cool place full of cute guys in their grey suits and blue ties, who turned around all at once as soon as Carmen entered the place wearing her tiny dress (also from a boutique in Argensola, what a coincidence since is the only one she has from there and she came right after work!) and pale pink high heels. We didn't sat outside but inside the place is just as great. It has huge windows from which you can do a lot of people watching while wondering who might cross the door. We shared some hummus with pita bread and a salmon and creme cheese tapa. She had a tomato juice and I asked for a Coke. Some pics below taken with Carmen's phone (I forgot my camera). Thanks Carmencita!

Evening@Whitby
La calle Argensola y sus aledañas son mis favoritas de Madrid. El "peligro" que tienen son sus boutiques repletas de cositas que me llevaría casi sin probarme. Como estamos disfrutando de Julio en Octubre, las terrazas del barrio están llenas de gente comiendo las patatas fritas que les traen con la Coca Cola. Lo mismo ves a un grupo de universitarios que a un popular ex alcalde con su bol de patatas. Me dieron tanta envidia que llamé a mi guapísima amiga Carmencita por si le apetecía compartir unas patatuelas conmigo (y de paso ver mis últimas adquisiciones). Hacia las ocho, el mejor sitio en Argensola es Whitby, siempre a tope de chicos guapos en traje gris y corbata azul cobalto, que se dieron la vuelta al entrar Carmen con su minivestido de una tienda de Argensola (casualidades de la vida) que compramos juntas y sus tacones rosa palo. Tiene terraza pero sus grandes ventanales te conectan con la calle. Además, como hace esquina, desde dentro también puedes ver a la gente que sube y baja por Zurbano. El ambiente dentro es muy especial y yo imagino que así deben ser los afterwork de NY. Yo me pedí una Coca Cola, ella un zumo de tomate y compartimos pan de pita con hummus y una tapa de salmón con queso fresco y sésamo negro (y un buen bol de patatas fritas, naturalmente). ¿Queréis ver algunas fotitos? Están hechas con el móvil de Carmen ya que no fui una buena blogger y no me llevé mi cámara. ¡Gracias Carmen!
