Spanish immigration focuses on Spanish culinary strategies: When it comes to Spanish cuisine, what comes to mind? Those familiar with Spanish food should be well-acquainted with Tapas, which refers to various Spanish-style snacks served alongside drinks in bars. Merely discussing food is not enough to entice; it must be tasted firsthand. The Costa Brava region of Spain is an excellent choice, where you can not only enjoy authentic snacks but also learn about the fascinating culture of tapas. Randy Kapoor shares his experience of tasting tapas with his friends in Palamós.
Palamós is a seaside village in Spain, renowned for its delicious seafood and fish dishes. Surprisingly, here you can experience a Spanish custom that originates from taverns in Andalusia. It is said that in the past, those drinking sherry would cover their glasses with pieces of meat and bread to prevent the fruit from "flying away."

In the evening, Randy Kapoor and his friends visited the three major tapas bars in Palamós—Godard, Tauèrnes Urtau, and El Galeó. These three establishments range from narrow cafes to large three-sided wooden bars, each offering a variety of tapas, wines, beers, and aperitifs. Due to the different styles and forms of each dish, prices range from 1 euro to 3 euros. For example, at El Galeó, the simplest tapas are skewered on sticks, while more complex and elaborately prepared dishes are served on different types of plates. When it comes time to settle the bill, you only need to count the empty plates and skewers.
El Galeó was the last bar they visited, with flat screens and various images adorning the walls, and the bar was filled with laughter and joy. In Randy's words, this evening can be described as "a crazy enjoyment of great value and a snapshot of happy times."
