Tapa: In Spain, tapas are seldom served without alcohol. They are not meant to be a meal in themselves. There are no tapas restaurants - only tapas bars. Tapas are small plates of food to be consumed with wine or other alcohol at a drinking establishment. Tapas can literally be any type of food - from nuts, olives, and assorted cheeses to roasted meats and stews.
Montadito: is a staple of the culinary arts from Spain. It is a unique tapa-sized rolls of bread similar to a baguette but wider and with a twist. Each montadito is filled with the best ingredients available, too bad we can’t tell you exactly which ones because it’s a secret. The montadito is a tradition that predates even the sandwich all the way back to the fifteenth century.
