Is your stomach rumbling? If it isn’t…. it will be soon. One of the most exciting aspects of travelling the world has to be eating all of that delicious food. Each country and city offers unique local dishes that perfectly represent the culture and cuisine. Have you been thinking about taking a trip to Costa del Sol? It is located in the south of Spain and is known for having beautiful waters, beaches, and thrilling nightlife. Something else Costa del Sol is known for? The unforgettable food! These tasty dishes are sure to make your stomach grumble and get your mouth watering.
The best place to start is with tapas. This is an essential part of the dining experience in Spain. You simply cannot take a trip there without a little bit of tapas! This includes a series of small traditional dishes, which are often served with drinks at dinner or in a bar. During your stay in Costa del Sol, you may find that certain places you eat will offer free tapas for each round of drinks you purchase. You may also see that tapas is sold at a much lower price. This is a great thing! It gives you the chance to try many different types of Spanish cuisine.
Some of the dishes you can expect? Cheese and olives, chopitos (which are fried baby squids), Albóndigas (meatballs with a savoury sauce), Empanadillas (turnovers with meat and vegetables inside) and more. If none of these appeal to you, don’t worry – there are plenty of other great options for you to choose from. Remember, in order to enjoy all of these tasty tapas treats there is one thing you’ll need to do: make sure to book your accommodations on the Costa del Sol. It is the perfect place to eat well!
Another food item you can enjoy on your trip to Costa del Sol is Gaspacho. This is a type of soup that includes raw vegetables and a tomato base. This soup is traditionally served cold. That makes it an ideal choice if you are visiting during the warmer months of the year. The meal will cool you off – and satisfy your stomach. That’s not all there is to enjoy in Costa del Sol. While you’re there, you may also want to try the Juicy Rice Stew With Cod, a traditional vegetable stew, or one of the local clam dishes.
There are also plenty of great drinks to enjoy during a Spanish getaway. One that you simply have to try is Tinto de Verano. It literally means “red wine of summer” – and that is exactly what it is! This is a wine based drink that mixes red wine with a carbonated beverage or soda. It is similar to sangria and is widely popular throughout the Spanish region. This drink is often served with traditional dishes, at bars, restaurants, and festivals.
