The most common theory about the origins of the tapa is that it derived from a
custom of covering (tapando) the wine glass with a piece of bread and pork, this
way serving both at the same time.
In order to really get to know authentic Spanish cuisine, one must try the ample
and varied assortment of tapas offered in Spain. We can find picadillos (minced
meat) or aliños (various seasoned meats), ensaladillas (version of Russian
potato salad), papas aliñás (seasoned potatoes), tortilla de patatas (spanish
potato omelet) and lorno mechado (loin strips). Under the hot (heated) tapa
category the king is the pincho moruno. Know also as “pinchitos”, this typical
andalusia snack is a mixture of a series of spices that season marinated pieces
of chicken or pork.
A tapa’s best ally is a Sherry wine; a manzanilla sherry or a amontillado (pale
dry sherry), although the warm climate of Seville recommends a cool beer.

We had a fabulous time on the Camino de Santiago! Everything worked as
it should have and all contact we had with anyone associated with
EATours was very friendly, very helpful and totally professional. You
can be sure that we will be passing the word. A real pleasure...
