Default New Year's in Madrid - suggestions please

Does anyone have any suggestions regarding a good, fun, traditional
Spanish restaurant that would have some kind of special event for New
Years 2003-04.

We will be staying in the Centro area (Opera, Plaza mayor, Plaza del
Sol) and would like a fun, traditional Spanish Restaurant with a late
seating in the $50 to $75 euro per person range.

Thank you for any information. If you have a contact number or email
address or web page of the restaurant, all the better.

Additionally, is anyone going to be in Madrid at this time who would
like to join us for the festivities? We ( my wife and I) like to meet
people from different cultures who travel. We already have our twelve
grapes ready.



Thank you again

Eddie from Texas

I would strongly encourage you to choose a restaurant within walking
distance of your hotel. We went to a restaurant which required a taxi
ride back to the hotel and none were to be found at the end of the
festivities. We ended up being driven back to the hotel by the owner of
the restaurant after he closed up the place.

Definitely a good move! We were defeated by the grapes with seeds. My
husband began by swallowing the seeds; I held the seeds in my mouth and
somewhere around grape nine or ten had no room in my mouth for new
grapes. Despite our lack of success, it wasn't a particularly unlucky year!
