Which originally referred to a piece of bread with a piece of sausage and served to accompany a drink or to cover it. That little but evolved piece of bread gives nowadays a special popularity to the Spanish culture.

In Spain, there are many cities celebrating the day of the tapa, the tapa week, the tapa route… Madrid, Barcelona, Granada, Alicante, Segovia, La Coruna, Sevilla, Ávila… And more and more are adding gourmet touches to these small and not so small delicatessen.
