Tapas can be anything but the most common are slices with different kinds of cheese and ham, cooked vegetables, deep-fried fish and seafood in marinade. But cooking does not have to be advanced at all. A bowl of olives or nuts, or just a piece of bread with olive oil and salt can also be counted as tapas. Among our classic tapas you will find crispy Calamaes (octopus rings), Gambas tigres (garlic and chili marinated prawns toasted in their shells), Pinchos papas (two small delicious spiced beef fillets), Gambas al ajillo (garlic and chilli-roasted shrimp in olive oil with piri-pirik spices), Queso de cabra (chevré cheese with pine nuts, serrano ham and honey) and many other tasty, tasty tapas. In the Basque country, tapas is called pintxos (pinchos), which often refers to small pieces of bread with something good on top, and a toothpick that runs through it. Tapas is the small dish menu. If you want to eat a larger portion you ask for a ración.
