A BRIEF HISTORY OF TAPAS
Tapas, a beloved culinary tradition, traces its origins back to Spain. The history of tapas is fascinating and dates back centuries. Legend has it that King Alfonso X of Castile, while recovering from an illness, ordered small bites of food to be served alongside his wine to regain strength. This practice quickly caught on and became a popular tradition in Spain. Initially, tapas were simple, rustic dishes like olives, cured meats, and cheese, which were enjoyed with friends and family. Over time, tapas evolved, incorporating a wide range of ingredients and flavours. Today, tapas have become synonymous with socialising, as people gather in bars and restaurants to enjoy these delectable small plates. With its rich history and delightful flavours, tapas continue to captivate taste buds around the world.
