The origin of the “Tapas”:

Towards the 19th century, at a small hotel at the beach on Cadiz , the King Alfonso XIII was served glass of wine with a slice of ham on top of it, with the excuse that it would not get any sand in it for the wind. The king liked it so much that said:

-More wine, Tavernier, but with another “tapa” (lid) like the last one.
