Miami is sometimes like a trip to Spain. Among aspects of the Spanish culture is a gastronomical mini-adventure called Tapas. These are tiny dishes of exotically prepared foods that are meant to be eaten while drinking wine. You don’t settle for one – you order several. Each tapas restaurant has its own specialties. Some examples are steak with chili corn sauce, stuffed squid, eggplant and tomato combinations, red beans with snails, or layered potato omelet. Doing tapas can be a cocktail hour adventure.
A particularly noted restaurant is Tapas Y Tintos on Miami Beach. They receive raves such as “I thought I was back in Spain.” “Fabulous tapas and deserts.” Treat yourself to a new experience in gastronomy as offered by Miami’s rich ethnic culture.
