Tapella Bar & Restaurant - Makati

Tapas are meant to be appetizers as the paella cooks. The cooking time for paella can range from thirty minutes to possibly an hour. By that time it was done, a diner could have already sampled a multitude of other dishes. I prefer just digging into the tapas, because a few of those can already constitute a full meal. Not to mention that a diner could request for a new basket full of bread to be brought over to the table. It even comes with a dip of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Old favorites include chorizos speared with toothpicks, gambas with heaps of garlic on top, as well as fried baby squid with lemon and aioli sauce, among others. Diners can also enjoy a wide variety of alcoholic drinks to go with the rich tapas, from local beers, to wine, and even to sangria. I'll just stick to soft drinks and water, please. I like to keep all my senses sharp as I enjoy my food.

As tapas devem ser aperitivos enquanto a paella cozinha. O tempo de cozimento da paella pode variar de trinta minutos a, possivelmente, uma hora. Quando estava pronto, um comensal já poderia ter provado uma infinidade de outros pratos. Prefiro apenas comer tapas, porque alguns deles já podem constituir uma refeição completa. Sem falar que um comensal poderia pedir que uma nova cesta cheia de pães fosse trazida para a mesa. Ele ainda vem com um molho de azeite e vinagre balsâmico. Os antigos favoritos incluem chouriço picado com palitos, gambas com montes de alho por cima, lulas fritas com limão e molho de aioli, entre outros. Os comensais também podem desfrutar de uma grande variedade de bebidas alcoólicas para acompanhar as ricas tapas, desde cervejas locais, ao vinho e até sangria. Vou me limitar a refrigerantes e água, por favor. Gosto de manter todos os meus sentidos aguçados enquanto desfruto da minha comida.
