Tapas are a wide variety of small flavorful appetizers that are meant to be shared and savored. The history of tapas is an old one. It probably dates from the Middle Ages, when field workers would take a small meal with them into the fields, meant to be eaten as they worked, or on a short break. As customs do, eating tapas evolved, becoming a social ritual in small restaurants all around Spain.

The serving of tapas is designed to encourage sharing, conversation, and by tradition almost always accompanied by wine. “Eat when you drink, drink when you eat” is the philosophy.
