Tapas
La Tapa so as to be meaningful has to
be eaten between main meals as food that allows the body to survive
until lunch or dinnertime. Some authors assert that the tapa was
born when, due to an illness, the Spanish king Alfonso the 10th, the
Wise, had to take small bites of food with some wine between meals.
Once recovered from the disease, the wise king decreed that no wine
was to be served in any of the inns in the land of Castile, unless
accompanied by something to eat. This was a wise precaution to
counteract the adverse effects of alcohol on those people who,
through lack of money to buy a nourishing meal, drank alcohol on an
empty stomach.
At Pica Tapas Bar & Churrasqueria we
serve a large array of the finest tapas, vegetarian, meat of fish
based, that serve as a great complement to our vast wine selection,
making our restaurant the favourite spot for business meeting, lunch
breaks or just for a small afternoon snack.
