News: The Orihuela Tapas Gin & Tonic Contest is back in November

Orihuela´s councillor for Tourism Sofía Álvarez has announced the comeback of the "tapas route" across the Orihuela streets known as the "Orihuela Tapas Gin & Tonic Contest" taking place on 10-12 November. This event has proven successful wherever it has been held throughout the Costa Blanca.

According to the councillor, this gastronomic event aims to focus on one of the most typical and delicious dishes of Spanish cuisine, the tapas. A tapa is simply the best thing to nibble on as you toast with your glass of wine or beer in a Spanish bar. The tapas have become an unmissable part of Spanish culture.

On Monday, October 16 there will take place the presentation of the jury, as well as the bars and restaurants participating and the menus.

At the end of this edition, prizes will be awarded to each of the five categories: Tapa Gourmet, Sweet Tapa, Special Tapa and Gin-tonic Prize, chosen by voters on social media.
