Do you know the ultimate Spanish snack? Let´s talk about Spanish tapas.
Get your tapas here! Tapas can be found all over Spain and are most common in Andalucía. So which are the best bars to try the ultimate Spanish snack and how does it work you might ask. Let´s check the Spanish tapas guide.
Tapas are small rations of food normally given in Spain when you order a drink. They are small plates of deliciousness to pick on while you sip on a glass of wine, una caña, or even a coca-cola.
Tapas can range from FREE to €3 depending on where you are. In my previous post, Where to Travel in the South of Spain, I mentioned a few provinces in Andalucía. Granada is well known for free tapas.List of Tapas:
“There are too many bars to choose from and a lot of them speak English. How do I know if I´m making the best choice?”
Look and listen for the locals in town! They tend to gravitate to the bars that are not tourist centered or tucked away in alleys.
