Mediterranean cuisine is full of delicacies. Undoubtedly, the maximum exponent of this tradition is rice and our most worldwide known dish: paella. But also sweets, stews with fish and, of course, Valencian tapas (patatas bravas, titaina, clotxines, cocas, esgarraets, aspencat,...) are very simple and autochthonous dishes that are not so well known outside the area, but that are part of what is already a social ritual of the Valencians: the aperitif (drink)/appetizer (food).
This tour will be a unique experience for several reasons: the choice of tapas you will taste, the legendary restaurants you will visit, the cooking tips I will share and the rich history of the city I will blend with the food stories.
