BIG FAT TAPAS
TAPAS originated in Andalusia in the south of Spain, where a small ‘tapa’ was served with drinks in bars, often just a slice of cured meat or a piece of cheese. According to culinary legend these ‘tapas’ were used to cover wine glasses - this to keep the aroma in and the flies out. The Fat Fish takes tapas to a new gastronomic high...with no flies!
