=== Cuisine === [[File:Queso de Campo Real tierno.jpg|thumb|right|{{ill|Cheese from Campo Real|es|Queso de Campo Real}}]] Although the region does not produce enough food to be self-sufficient, the varied territory of the region outside the urbanised centre provides enough food commodities to create its own cuisine: cheese of [[Campo Real]], vine with [[Vinos de Madrid]] [[Denominación de origen|DO]], strawberries and aspargus from Aranjuez, [[Santa Claus melon|melons]] from [[Villaconejos]], [[artichoke]]s from [[Ciempozuelos]], ''[[Phaseolus coccineus|judiones]]'' from [[Montejo de la Sierra]], [[garlic]] from [[Chinchón]], [[chickpea]]s from [[Navalcarnero]], [[lentil]]s from [[Colmenar de Oreja]], cauliflower from [[Griñón]] or a number of vegetables from the [[Alberche River|Alberche Valley]].{{Sfn|Feo Parrondo|2014|pp=34–35}} <!-- <div class="center"><gallery mode="packed" heights="160px"> File:CocidoMadrileño.jpg|''[[Cocido madrileño]]'' File:Cucumis melo, "melón piel de sapo", Villaconejos.jpg|Muskmelon from Villaconejos File:DO Madrid.jpg|Bottle labelled with the [[Vinos de Madrid]] [[Denominación de origen|DO]] File:Caña y Bocadillo 0628.jpg|''[[Squid sandwich|Bocata de calamares]]'' </gallery></div> --> {{Main|Cuisine of the Community of Madrid}} In addition, due to the rich restaurant business in the region, "all the regional cuisines of Spain are represented in Madrid" according to {{ill|José del Corral Raya|es}}.{{sfn|Feo Parrondo|2014|p=35}} As the madrilenian cuisine has absorbed much from the rest of regional cuisines of Spain, there is ambiguity when it comes to define the former; however, dishes such as the ''[[cocido madrileño]]'', the ''[[potaje de garbanzos]]'', the ''{{ill|callos a la madrileña|es}}'', the ''[[sopa de ajo]]'' or the ''[[tortilla de patatas]]'' are considered part of the madrilenian cuisine regardless of their geographical specificity.{{Sfn|Feo Parrondo|2014|p=32}} By April 2011 the region had over 40,000 [[Bar (establishment)|bar]]s, 2,700 [[Coffeehouse|coffee shops]] and nearly 10,000 [[restaurant]]s.{{Sfn|Feo Parrondo|2014|p=33}}
