my MIL is traveling to spain on business, and got a list of kosher places to eat. the question is how kosher is kosher? did anyone here go to spain or know someone that did, that can help me out. shell be in madrid and valencia. any info would be really helpful.
if u can get a phone number maybe for someone there that can let us know the level of kashrus on these places. thanks so much!

A local Orthodox rav may allow things the ultra Orthodox won't allow, from a list of kosher food or ingredients (unless you want the ultra Orthodox standards).

My dh says in Madrid and Barcelone there is an Orthodox community.

My dh says: For hechsherless products, you need to ask the rav of Madrid, R' Moshe Bendahan if there is a list, or whatever. I hope the community is organized enough to have compiled one!
His phone is + 34 91 591 31 35.

I had a friend who went a year or so ago and brought all her own food, except for local produce which she got there.

I have family and friends in Madrid.

Both restaurants in Madrid - Naomi Grill & La Escudilla - are under a good hechsher, Rav Moshe Bendahan is an orthodox Rav and gives a very good hechsher.
Also in Torremolinos the Hechsher is given by Rav Kalili and it is a good reliable hechsher.
I would be carefull in Malaga, Marbella and Barcelona. You should ask Rav Godshtein from Chabad or Rav Bendahan from the Madrid community.
