i'm doing a spanish project for school, and the assignment is to create a menu for a made up restaurant. but i cant think of any food i would put on there. anyone have any ideas? it has to be authentic and its not a seafood restaurant. thanks so much!

Answer 1

Tapas is a generic term for a spanish style of dining on lots of small dishes (like appitizers).

Attached is a link for a spanish menu that serves tapas.

Answer 2

Any authentic Spanish restaurant will contain a lot of seafood on the menu. It's a major staple of Spanish cuisine and they do not divide it out into seafood and non-seafood restaurants.

The menu on this site is very traditional and authentic Spanish. http://www.casajuancho.com/

Answer 3

hard to not to include seafood in Spanish cuisine as they have one of the highest pe capita consumption of seafood. Anyway, cochinillo (roast suckling pig) callos (tripe stew), the various paellas (rice dishes with meat, seafood or a combination), boquerones (white anchovies wth garlic and olive oil), gambas (prawns or shrimps), chorizos and table de embutidos (various sausages nd cured meats) much much more..

suggest you google : "spanish menu" and check out the menus of the restaurants

Answer 4

You need to Google Authentic Spanish Foods instead of asking folks to do your homework for you! Try tienda.com.

Answer 5

When i went to Mexico they had some of the same things here. Street vendors sell Tacos or grilled chicken and some other things. Tamales, Arroz con Pollo (rice with chicken) Menudo (soup) flautas, burritos. guacamole those are things that you see on a typical menu in Mexico. I saw that someone said Tappas, those are rom Spain not Mexico.. just FYI

hope that helps
