The Castlegate Taberna, Pickering
A warm welcome from Amparo and Ian, we opened this small cosy Spanish restaurant in 2004, where we serve Spanish dishes as “tapas”, and where you can practise your Spanish and discover some of the most well appreciated Spanish wines and beers.
What is Tapas?
They are small dishes, cooked to order, aimed to provide a well-balanced, healthy and appetizing meal. This is the traditional way Spanish people eat, almost covering their tables with a range of hot and cold dishes to be shared by everybody.
How Many?
Ian and Amparo suggest that to make a meal out of tapas, each person should choose about 3 or 4 tapas, and then should share everybody’s choice, with the wine or beer flowing and lively conversation.
