Comida. Although it is just one simple Spanish word,
its value should not be underestimated. Spanish people & food = passion. Desayuno,
almuerzo, comida, merienda, tapas, cenar…enough words to express different
meals – each with its own uses and times. For instance, if you would walk into
a tapas bar at 4PM, you would be without a doubt the only one whom is having a
meal, accompanied by the bartender and the TV. However, if you wait for a
couple of hours and enter the bar around 7ish, you will experience a complete
different setting. Lots of Spanish people talking, eating and drinking. Napkins
spread around over the floor and the sound of good talks and laughs.
After a first tasty tapas, all ready to go to the next tapas bar! |
Last Friday, a group of students from Tía Tula joined the tapas tour
organized by the school for having some tapas together. A great success – due
to the size of the group (about 20), the students didn’t even manage to visit the
last bar! At each bar, the students tried different tapas dishes and had a drink
(or two). A great start for the weekend, not only by making new friends but
also to taste a bit more of the Spanish culture. Can’t wait for the next
delicious activity!
