Lucio Blazquez is Madrid's gastronomic royalty. He started working at the Meson de Segovia when he was 12 and then bought the restaurant in the 70's and renamed it Casa Lucio. It was here that he popularised his grandmother's recipe "Huevos Estrellados". When Americans and Brits hear potatoes and eggs they ask WTF? But Lucio's broken eggs are so delicious that he opened a restaurant in front of Casa Lucio dedicated to his masterpiece. The potatoes and eggs are prepared separately and then the addition of chistorra sausages takes it to the next level. Hungry foreigners can get a version for breakfast from 9;30 am at nearby "Los Rotos" but Madrileños come here for this delicacy at midday.
