Are you excited to spend your holidays to Spain? If so, you have made a great decision! Spain is a beautiful land of diverse cultures, happy people, lovely beaches, and pleasant climate. Best of all, it is a land blessed with great gastronomic delights. Indeed, one of the must-do things in Spain is to visit their many eateries to sample the mouthwatering delights of the nation.
Here's a useful guide to the types of eateries you want to visit during your holidays to Spain. Just pick which one that is the best for you. Or better yet, just try them all!
1. Horno Asador
Horno asador eateries are literally translated as "roasting oven." Most of the entries in the menu are cooked in a typically round oven that is made of roofing tiles or adobe. Seasoned and herbed lambs, suckling pigs, and fowls are placed in earthenware cooking dishes and slid into the oven. The smell of cooking that emanates from the oven of a horno asador is incredibly enticing. Eating in a horno asador makes you think as if you went back in time to taste Spanish food cooked in the old way.
2. Terraza
A terazza, or terrace, is a streetside restaurant. Spanish citizens like to eat outdoors, so you would see many terrazas along your tour. Terrazas have awnings, umbrellas, and trees to shield diners from the rain or sun. Typically, you don't need a reservation to sit on a table. A terazza is a convenient establishment where you can just grab a meal whenever you are hungry.
3. Restaurante
This is a typical sit-down restaurant that is just like any other restaurant in the world. Protocols, etiquette, and customs that need to be observed are pretty much the same. A restaurant tends to be small, exuding an intimate atmosphere. Similar to many restaurants, you might need a reservation to dine in one.
4. Casa de Comidas
If you are a backpacker or a budget traveler, then eating in casa de comidas is for you. Considered as working-class restaurants, they provide you delicious dishes at very low prices.
5. Tasca
If you want a cold beer and some bar foods, then tascas, or bars, are ideal places to go to. Some of them even have entertainment such as live bands and televised sports shows.
