Description:
Legend has it that "tapas" originated many centuries ago. Dusty Spanish taverns would cover glasses, wine, or beer with bread, cheese, or sausage...to keep the soldiers sober and the flies out of the drinks of customers.
But the Spanish found these "lids" to be quite tasty, and would often choose their favorite bar by the quality of its tapas. Accompanied with a wide variety of wines, tapas has evolved into a complete dining experience.
