Tapas Tour Dinner in Madrid 2012

Madrid, with its seemingly thousands of tapas bars, is the home of tapas – those delicious snacks that you can mix and match and slurp down with a nice rioja wine or a Mahou beer. This has to be the most civilized way of getting to know a new city - moving from bar to bar having drinks and scrumptious food that adds up to the equivalent of a full dinner and a bar crawl thrown in! 

 

Our Madrid Tapas night  lets you try a broad range of the best tapas in the world: tasty fish tapas like boquerones (fried whitebait), bacalao (cod) or the amazing gambas (shrimp) done in wicked amounts of garlic and chilli.  The spicy Patatas bravas is a perennial favourite in these parts, and goes a treat with a cold beer!  The locals also munch on almost all pig parts, with no holds (or holes) barred, and no serious tapero would overlook the delicious Serrano Ham. 

You’ll also try some of the great Spanish cheeses – manchego, or the ultra-tangy cabrales. And afterwards our guide will recommend bars or clubs to keep you well entertained into the night!
