Last night we had tapas for a friend's birthday. I've only got into tapas recently but am completely addicted. It's such a tasty, fun and companionable way to eat. There's something about sitting with friends in a restaurant sharing and swapping dishes that's cosy and familial.
Tapas now makes me think of Victoria Hislop's 'The Return'. I've never been to Spain, not learnt Spanish and didn't really know much about the country but that book takes you into the heart of Granada and feeds Spain to you piece by piece. The bull rings, cafes, tapas, flamenco and salsa sizzle off the pages and it's a great holiday read.
