As part of our Spanish Cultural Program we run a Tapas Tour every week with our Spanish Students. It’s the best way to get to know the best Tapas bars in Salamanca and is a great way to meet the other Spanish Students! Find out more here.
This Monday the latest Spanish Students staying with us in Salamanca got the chance to go and enjoy some of the best local tapas! The Tapas Tour is a trip we run every week as part of our cultural program, and offers the students the chance to get to know each other and the city a bit better, whilst trying some of the best local food!
On the trip we normally go via some of the best bars in Salamanca, including: The Cuatro Gatos (The 4 Cats) on the Rúa Mayor, Delicatessen, Doctrinos, where they serve the best jamón! and Mater Asturias, an Asturian Cider bar serving typical Asturian Cider and delicious food. Some other bars include Bambú, a bar next to the square serving loads of different tapas and rations of delicious meat cooked on the grill, amongst other things.

In Salamanca some of the best local foods are the famous Jamón, the best type coming from near to Salamanca itself! and the delicious Tortilla Española. The Tortilla is made up of fried potatoes and eggs and is sometimes filled with different things. Some of the most typical are ham and cheese, or vegetables – more often than not including tuna and salad.
Another typical food of the region is Farinato. A Spanish type of Haggis! It’s meat and bread with herbs, onion and seasoning inside either a real or synthetic stomach lining, and can normally be found in the shape of a sausage! It normally comes served fried with a fried egg.
This week the Spanish Students currently staying with us in Salamanca enjoyed the Tapas Tour and here you can see a photo of them enjoying some pinchos, tapas in the Mater Asturias bar, right next to the Plaza Mayor. There are loads of photos on Facebook of other Tapas tours that we’ve done in the past so that you can see what we get up to! There’s also posts on our blog telling you more about the Tapas tours!
