Taste Of Melilla Tapas

OVERVIEW

Enjoy a sampling of tapas at several popular restaurants in Old Town, while listening to the owners and chefs tell their personal stories and share their passion for food. This culinary experience is more than just a tasting; it’s a authentic look into everyday life in Melilla. Although the exact venues and types of tapas will be chosen the day of the excursion, in all likelihood local seafood will be among the ingredients. The majority of the city’s seafood and produce comes over the border, so the tapas will have distinctive Moroccan and Spanish influences. You can expect the dishes to be made with aromatic spices, skewered kabobs and roasted vegetables. Your hosts will be happy to describe the preparation of the tapas and how they started their businesses. Hot tea and pastries will be served at the last venue. Even the walk between restaurants will be a pleasure, as it will be through the atmospheric Old Town.
