their second home, after the Bernabéu

Asador Donostiarra is a famous restaurant in Madrid specializing in Basque cuisine, and if you ever go there, you’ll notice that the walls are lined with photos of famous people that have eaten there (it makes for great entertainment to see how many of these people you recognize.  Since I love flipping through Spanish tabloids, I can recognize a lot).  Among those famous people are of course Real Madrid players, and recently, the restaurant posted some of these photos on their web site!

So here are the Real Madrid players that have passed through the rooms of Asador Donostiarra.  As you can see, the players have been going there for years and years, sometimes alone, sometimes with friends and family, and sometimes with each other!  And some of them – Becks – go back whenever they return to Madrid!

The pictures of young Raúl, Guti and Álvaro are the best!!!
