tapas
• 21 comments •
As mentioned earlier, Tapas was the go-to meal on most days while in Spain. At this particular restaurant, we ordered "albóndigas en salsa" (meatballs in sauce), "magro con tomate" (lean pork in tomato sauce), and "huevos rotos con chorizo, patatas". Sorry if the Spanish is incorrect - these were the titles on the menu. We liked the meatballs but found the other dishes to be a little too heavy for us. Chorizo sausage is intense... also not the most appetizing thing to look at, but we took a photo anyway. Although, we were happy to try it because it seemed to be a popular item on most menus.

ReplyDeleteI'm afraid it seems I would not last long in Spain because I don't eat meat haha.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous - We discovered tapas for the first time in a restaurant in Minneapolis... so, I'm sure you can find it!
ReplyDeleteCanadian Pie - We didn't see any padron peppers. I don't even know what they are!
Behind the Lashes - The dishes were definitely meat heavy... and the seafood dishes were really greasy. We had salads too, but they were pretty boring.
Yum! there are several great tapa's restaurant to eat at in Atlanta.. love it!
ReplyDeleteThe best food I've eaten anywhere in the world was in Spain. Especially in San Sebastian! I've never been to Malaga, but it looks just as good there!
ReplyDeleteI love tapas! There were tons of good Spanish restaurants with tapas in DC (jaleo is my fav). I am going to Madrid soon for my first tapas in Spain!
ReplyDeletewow- you're beautiful! Your skin tone and hair! Those tapas are lookin' preetty good too :)
ReplyDeleteTapas are my favorite meal in the entire world. Yum!
ReplyDeleteThey were fried peppers sprinkled with salt and it was a little bit spicy when I first tried them in Valencia although when I had them in Barcelona, they were really really spicy and had to send them back to the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteMu husband and I were so disappointed with the tapas when we were in Spain! Yours look yummy! All the places we went seemed to have weird seafood dishes or pizza and fries...not what we expected to be on the tapas menu!
ReplyDeletei think i say this all the time, but YOUR HAIR LOOKS SO AMAZING. pretty lady!
ReplyDeletelove the pictures, have to agree w/ the comments about your hair - so pretty!
ReplyDeletei like the idea of tapas, but have never done it. i think we have a restaurant around here that serves that style. i'll have to look more closely now! : )
I just wrote a post about tapas, which are not actually a type of food as most people think but a way of eating. Anyway, I love love love chorizo, but even more so salchichón which is like chorizo but without the paprika. My bf's parents make their own and it is so yummy.
ReplyDeleteI grew up on chorizo and got pretty burnt out on it. To this day I still can't eat it!
ReplyDeletei LOVE your hair, you look absolutely stunning darling!
ReplyDeleteMmm, looks appetizing to me. I love tapas, the more food the merrier, in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI love tapas, and chorizo is my absolute favorite! The fact that it oozes bright orange oil is awesome, but I'm strange like that
ReplyDeleteI agree with A.G above---I was also so disappointed! Just got back last night and nothing I encountered resembles anything you just posted about ;(
