In Spain, don't be surprised if a local friend invites you for tapas - an appetizer at 10pm that lasts until 3am. There's nothing like a late night chatting with friends over beers and tapas.

 

When it comes to Tapas, you definitely cannot miss the famous spicy sausage Chorizo ​​made from pork. The Spanish consider Chorizo ​​as the soul of every dish. Chorizo ​​has a characteristic spicy taste from Spanish paprika, a bit salty for Vietnamese taste. You can eat Chorizo ​​with toasted bread, cashew nuts, and sip a cold beer.

Another dish that has easily won the hearts of the world on the tapas menu is Albóndigas meatballs. Usually, mothers will mix quite a lot of ingredients from meat, eggs, flour, to onions, breadcrumbs, spices… to create this attractive meatball dish. This is also the main ingredient of Albóndigas soup, a traditional meatball soup with mint and herbs for sick days.

 

 

Of course, we cannot miss other delicious dishes in the “tapas house” such as: Calamares Fritos, Croque De Jamon bacon rolls, Berenjenas Gratinadas grilled eggplant… The dishes in the tapas menu are all small and not fussy, sometimes diners just need to use a toothpick to pierce an olive, a slice of cheese, and a piece of toasted bread.

In particular, cold tapas with cheese dipped in olive oil, accompanied by bread and dried fruits are irresistible. It is an interesting culinary experience when sipping Camembert cheese with a creamy mushroom and nutty smell, made from cow's milk; Brie cheese with a soft, creamy taste; Blue Cheese with a strong, strong flavor...
