Going for Tapas in Seville
Tapear (verb. to go for tapas) is a generic concept that englobes various actions from the same pleasant mood: drink, eat, chit chat, street roaming, wave hello, see and be seen etc.
Like any other Art, tapear is diametrically opposed to any exact science and gives carte blanche to the eat whatever you feel like, and I mean, in complete disorder you can eat fried, stew, raw, cooked, hot or cold of vegetables, meat or fish. And it will make perfect sense.
But there is also a sense of etiquette or protocol to follow. You go for tapas with people you like. As for the number of dishes, please refrain from going above ten (that would be inelegant) or the austerity of remaining below five. To keep the tapas session interesting and alive, we recommend the group to be from 4-8 people that can be easily accommodated.
When in Seville, visit Mercado de Triana or Lonja del Barranco. Alternatively, you can join us for one of our tapas tour and see for yourself!
