Lo Mejor Bocadillo.

A great place for a sandwich, right around the corner from Los Italianos heladeria (ice cream shop) is Bodega La Mancha. I went here on my Granadino roommate's recommendation, and I was not disappointed. There are no places to sit down here; this is where the young adults grab a late dinner or snack right before they get their groove on at the nearby clubs.

The sandwiches are very basic on the menu, so the best thing to do is ask for what you want exactly. I had a spinich torilla (torilla espinaca) with some melted cheese on the inside. Delicious. To water that down, a good seasonal drink to choose is the "tinto verano," a fancy name for some refreshing sangria.
