“There is no sincerer love than the love of food”
There are many legends about the origin of Tapas as a style of cuisine. Some say an ailing King Alphonso enjoyed the small bites of food with wine and it became a tradition passed down from the royal court. Others say that the first Tapas were used to cover a glass of wine in Andalusian taverns. Whichever is true, Tapas are now a world-renowned cultural pastime and nothing is as wonderful as the matching of small tasty dishes, with delicious wines and great company.
Add all of those elements together with the warmest of welcomes as you join us at La Bodega.
