International food: Asian

Asian food is relatively new to Madrid, and the number of shops with good quality asian products is growing quickly. Asian food is also finding its way into the traditional Spanish markets (particularity the los Mostenses market near plaza de España, where you can now find many fresh ingredients that are fundamental to asian recipes (ginger, coriander, chilies...). I
