One dish, done since the 1960s: a skewer of griddled mushrooms in a garlicky, lemony sauce on a slice of bread, eaten standing with a short glass of wine. El Champi is El Tubo distilled to a single perfect gesture — the plancha never stops, the champiñón never changes, and the queue of locals tells you everything about how right they got it.
