The mysterious, studly look is much better than the grinning old crooner favored of late...
Are you a gambler in good standing at the Conrad Hotel? Then you can request free tickets to go see Charles Aznavour on Friday evening. Other for-VIP-only musical events in the horizon include Cacho Castaña (you don't want to activate your special connections for that one).
On the food front, there is an "Asian food festival" starting today through Sunday, and again on Sat. 18 and Sunday 19th. Buffet style. And through September, on Saturdays at lunchtime you have the chance to try the "puchero" a traditional "throw everything you have around in the pot and then drink the broth and eat the meats and vegetables separately" hearty meal. Highly recommended.
The Conrad's high-tea is particularly good, although with the disadvantage of being served in the depressing dark place off the lobby (Veleros), with "fashion shows" or "flamenco classes" or other such torturing "entertainment". That said, we always indulge a few times a year. Now is a good time to try it out, as Monday through Thursdays there's a 2x1 promotion, that is, US$20 for two people for the buffet, which usually includes a single beverage per person.
If you're of the male, sports-fan, alcohol drinking persuasion, the same place, Veleros, turns into a "sports bar" from Thursdays through Sunday, with 2x1 drinks between 8 pm and 1 am, and US$20 tapas buffet.
Post-concert comment: he rocked! What a treat! And it is supposedly his farewell tour.
