"Traditional patisserie shop and cafe selling a wonderful range of Spanish-style sweets and cakes, such as torrijas (bread cooked in milk, egg, sugar, cinnamon and lemon)."

"The best torrijas of Madrid: Nunos. They sell the most non-traditional torrijas in the city: they are mini-size and done with raspberry, grilled custard, toffee with dulce de leche, toasted cream, and stuffed with apple and cinnamon."

"Good appearance and nice texture, quite juicy."

"In the area of Alonso Cano is this seventies-style bar, famous for its torrijas (which are prepared throughout the year and which are one of its star desserts) and its tortilla skewers. A combo of both delicacies is close enough to what could be considered the best snack in the world."

"Here we can find the classic torrijas made with wine or milk and, as this is our first time here, we let ourselves be advised by the waiter. Result: torrija based on milk with citrus (grapefruit, lime and orange): DELICIOUS."

"During Easter, torrijas are sold everywhere around the city, but pasty shops like Antigua Pasteleria del Pozo are among the locals favorite places to find this sweet dessert."

"Their torrijas are awesome but this year.. they’ve taken it a step further. We didn’t believe that this was possible but…yes: torrija with chocolate bread and melted chocolate over it. Oh, yes, please!"

"One of the oldest restaurants of Madrid has the torrija that is said to be the best of Madrid. And probably it’s true."

"They make spectacular torrijas during a Holy Week."

"Don't leave without trying the torrija."
