Arroz a la Cubana
Cocido (a chickpea and meat stew of sorts)
Chorizo (spicy sausage)
Chuletillas (grilled chops of milk-fed lamb)
Gazpacho (cold bread and tomato soup)
Fabada Asturiana (bean stew)
Jamón serrano (cured ham)
Lechazo asado (roasted milk-fed lamb)
Mariscos (shellfish)
Paella (saffron rice)
Pescaito Frito, marinated battered fried fish, typical from Seville and Western Andalusia
Tortilla de patatas or tortilla española (egg omelette with potatoes)
Turrón, a dessert with almonds and honey, typical of Christmas
Tortas de Aceite from Seville, a sweet Olive Oil pastry

Cuisine in each region
Extremadura: olla podrida (a rich stew of bacon, fowl, ham, meats, and vegetables), excellent embutidos of Iberian pork, cheeses (including the indispensable torta del casar, a close relative of the Portuguese queso da serra, one of the best of the world), pitarra wine.
Navarra: vegetable stews, Tudela's lettuce hearts with anchovies, salmon, or a simple vinaigrette (oil, salt and vinegar); piquillo peppers, which are often stuffed with meat; trout a la Navarra (cooked stuffed with bacon and cheese), Roncal and Idiazabal cheeses, curd from Ultzama, claret wine, and the liquor pacharán.
La Rioja: above all its international Rioja wines, as well as its vegetable soups, its pepper and its potato dishes (that dumbfounded even Paul Bocuse, so the story goes).
Murcia: products of its rich gardens, such as zarangollo; fish and lamb stews; and the wines of Jumilla.
Madrid: the cocido madrileño (Madrid's chickpea stew) and the tripe dish callos a la madrileña, strawberries from Aranjuez or melons from Villaconejos, the wines from Navalcarnero and the Anis del Toro of Chinchón.

Answer 2

My hubbie and I love spanish and hispanic food. Many of the nicer restaurants we have eaten in serve Paella. This dish is Spanish in origin and combines a couple of different meats and seafood cooked in a yellow rice. It is really delicious. The best recipe for paella I have ever found is at the America's Test Kitchen website. I just made it recently and it turned out great. Good luck.

Answer 4

Ok you mentioned Spanish and then you mentioned Madrid, Spain. Since you mentioned Madrid, I will tell you what the Spaniards eat. When I Iived in Spain, Madrid to be exact, they eat very light breakfast, a lunch, which is their heavy meal and then a light dinner around 8:30. Some of their meals are:

Of course we all know the Paella, which is a rice with all sort of fish products, they enjoy shrimp, cheese, Codfish, Soups, Lentils, Stews, and smoked hams. Yes, they love their bread, rolls to be exact, and of course, their sangria.
