About Mediterranean cuisine

Mediterranean cuisine draws on the cooking of the countries around the Mediterranean Sea, with olive oil, vegetables, grains, seafood and herbs at its heart. It is celebrated for fresh, balanced and largely plant-forward plates.

Spanish dining revolves around quality, sociability and the joys of eating at length. Tapas culture — small, shareable plates designed to be grazed over conversation and wine — is a national institution across the country. Spanish cuisine is intensely regional: Catalonia has its avant-garde culinary movement, the Basque Country its pintxo bars and celebrated fine dining, Andalusia its deep-fried fish and gazpacho, and each region guards its own protected products and wine appellations with fierce pride.
