Cuisine
One of the most enjoyable aspects of traveling is the delightful variety of local cuisine. In Spain, breakfast is very light, usually consisting of only rolls and coffee. Lunch is traditionally a three-course meal which takes much of the afternoon to consume. The traditional dish is known as paella and is made from chicken, meat, vegetables, seafood and saffron rice.
Dinner is less hearty than lunch and is served late, between 9 p.m. and midnight. Tapas, a meal comprising small samples of various appetizers, is a popular evening repast in Spanish bars and cafés.
