What is my favorite tapa so far?? Gah I could never choose! They are all so different and wonderful. The first night here my señora served me a toritilla españa which I wolfed down. It is made of eggs, potatoes and onions – basically a Spanish frittata. But I also love el salpicón de mariscos. It is light and refreshing with delish seafood and a hint of vinegar. The least tasty tapa for me so far has been… nothing! I love them all. I have yet to be adventurous and try the tongue of an animal but that is definitely on my bucket list.
Without a doubt my favorite drink is sangria. I gulp it down as if it is fruit punch (I admit its not the smartest thing to do considering I get tipsy off a drop of it. I have loved all of the drink so far though. I cannot wait to go home and try making them myself. Mixing wine with coca cola is definitely on my to do list, as well as veranos tintos… muy refrescante.
The next time I go out I hope to muster up the courage to order una lengua. Wish me luck!
Hasta luego,
Katherine
Katherine - wonderful post! What you propose - bringing recipes back home - is a fantastic way to share your experience with your friends and family (and also spread the word on the incredible food scene here in Spain). You'll soon have everyone asking you to make "your sangría / tinto de verano / tortilla de patata" etc.
