A Step up - Confiteria la Ideal

This place says tango! It is a cake and coffee shop downstairs and a magnificent tango ballroom upstairs. Marble pillars, a tiled floor, a wonderful skylight and an ambience that is classic tango.

 Lesley, Rosanna and I went for the beginning and there were only a few couples dancing. We had room to dance!! And we did dance!! We were as good as any of the others and at one time Lesley and I were the only couple on the floor and we felt good. Pause to pinch - yes, dancing alone at Confiteria la Ideal.
BUT - then the good dancers got up. That was wonderful to watch but we did find out that they were teachers of some standing.
At least half of the people there had come to watch so partners were in short supply but nevertheless it was our best tango experience to date.
