A few nights ago I finally got the opportunity to eat the famous Spanish tapas. Tapas are small plates of food, and it is very typical for people to order a lot of tapas to make up their meal rather than ordering one main entree. Tapas literally means ¨lid¨and the word originated from the fact that these small plates of food used to be placed on top of wine glasses at restaurants, like lids.
The tapas that we ate included potato salad, fried fish and calamari, pork and french fries, and of course, tortilla española. The food was incredible and it was an amazing experience overall.
