Traditional Tapas Bar

With tapas you have complete freedom to choose what, where, and how to eat—sitting or standing—when to start, and when to finish: it's up to you. "Tapas is a style of eating. It's not just what you eat, it's how you pick it up and the way you share the tapas experience," explains Rafael Ansón, President of the Spanish Royal Academy of Gastronomy. You can have one or 2 portions of tapas as an appetizer, or enjoy a whole meal of dishes. They can be eaten standing at the bar, sitting on a stool, or at a low table.
