May have been done before - but I am interested in your favourite tapas!

One of mine is chickpeas, in a tomato sauce with a bit of sheep intestine!
(did not know the final ingredient when I 1st tried it but it was so good I soon got over it)

There are so many!
My favourites: Boquerones en vinaigre, Sardinas en escabeche. Ensalada de mariscos, pulpo a la Gallega, Sardinas aliñados.

You are obviously a seafood person - something I do not eat but my OH and kids do. I was told when I was a kid I would never be smart because
I did not eat fish. Don't think I turned out too bad

Without a doubt one of my favorites were Gambas pilpil, I was, for a while, addicted, the hotter the better, I could never get my head around angulas but friends of mine loved them but one of my guilty pleasures, even now, is frying off some cubes of chorizo and dipping some crusty bread into the bright red oil, just too good for words!!!!

Oh god my mouth is watering already.

Garbanzos con callos probably Tripe!

I like so many, but if habas con jamón is on offer, I have to have some. Even better, habitas, the smaller ones!

If you're passing through Córdoba there's a bar called Ayesta which has the best range of vegetarian tapas I've seen.

that looks like it - the meat looked like ham not tripe, but i was told intestine pointing at the belly - so yeh it would be tripe. Takes me back to my gran eating tripe in vinegar - yuk.

Chicken livers, or the ternera retinta, veal from the local red cattle, which is very rich in flavour.

Mine too! Sometimes the simple things are the best, like a piece of bread soaked in tomato juice squeezed from a fresh summer tomato, a dash of salt and olive oil. Add a slice of jamon if you're greedy!

Favorite tapa? So many tapas to choose from it is impossible. Favorite tapa city? San Sebastian sin duda, en el casco viejo. I could get lost there and hope to never find my way out!

Albondigas or Carne con Tomate.

Garbanzos con Callos is great but I leave the Callos

I thought they were pintxos there. Good article here, a bit old, but still relevant I expect.

Dont forget the little pinch of cummin powder, that is waht that little "kick" is.

Being a meat person myself I prefer the Rajo/raxo, zorza type stuff.

I have just asked my wife what her favourite tapa is, she said: Cadburys Cream egg........

Wow - I will go with that - OMG that as set me off this morning.
