A tapa ['tapa] (Spanish for "lid," "cover") is a small appetizer usually served with wine in tapas bars, but also with beer. Tapas correspond to the mezedes common in the eastern Mediterranean and Middle East. Tapas in Spain are usually served in tapas bars and bodegas, where they are eaten standing up. Our tapas are not for eating, they are little bits of knowledge to consume on the go or in between meals.
