tapas
Pronunciation: [TAH-pahs]
Popular throughout Spain in bars and restaurants, tapas are appetizers that usually accompany sherry or other apéritifs or cocktails. They can also form an entire meal and can range from simple items such as olives or cubes of ham and cheese to more elaborate preparations like cold omelets, snails in a spicy sauce, stuffed peppers and miniature sandwiches.
