The interior is a curious clash of old CNT/anarchist graphics with neo-fascist skinhead children. I&#8217;m not particularly fond of the one or the other, but I quite like the bar. I suppose, not being Spanish, that I could buy it and turn it into a Hayek shrine. Not sure how [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s better with rice, but I&#8217;m still surprised more people didn&#8217;t die. (Sublimated sulphur is used by modern-day lepers, says the chemist, so that wasn&#8217;t a problem.)
