Fodor's Expert Review El Chacón

$ Carabanchel, Usera, and Latina Dinner Fodor's Choice
All the Galician greatest hits are on the menu at this Latina stalwart with an old tile floor and wooden benches. Paprika-dusted octopus, smoky lacón (cooked ham), and weighty slabs of empanada gallega (tuna pie) go down a bit too easily when accompanied by gallons of the house Albariño.
