A word for the wise Spanish Tapas originated more

A word for the wise
Spanish Tapas originated more than 700 years ago in the
province of Cádiz. Legend has it that King Alfonso X stopped for
refreshment at a local tavern on the coast. It was a hot and windy
day, so the waiter kindly covered the king’s glass with a thin slice of
cured ham to protect it. The king enjoyed the ham and noticed how
it complemented the sherry while stopping the alcohol from going
to his head, so he ordered another with the same ‘tapas’ (a cover).
Shortly after, the king decreed that all taverns serve alcoholic
drinks with tapas. Bars sprang up all over Spain, with a variety of
tasty treats covering the drinks. The king’s good judgment soon
earned him the name ‘el Sabio’ (the wise one). Some say he was
called el Sabio for his many and varied contributions to culture, yet
we like to believe his greatest gift was the humble tapas bar.
So in homage to el Sabio we named our first tapas place in
2011 on Duxton Hill.
And now in Sentosa Cove, the legend lives on…

Based on popular wine punches circling Europe at the time,
Sangria boasts an assortment of fruit stewed in a claret base mixed
with soda water and sugar. Its rich flavour and light body made it
an instant hit, especially during summer months, as its chilled,
refreshing taste is the perfect remedy to the heat. Soon it was
served at parties of all sizes – from small restaurant gatherings to
extravagant aristocratic lawn parties.
Its popularity grew throughout Spain until it made its
international debutat the 1964 World's Fair in New York.
Even though its market has expanded, the spirit of Sangria
lives on in its making. Its beauty is in its flexibility. Combinations
and quantities of fruit and wine can be refined until
a blend reaches perfection.
At Sabio we have entered into the long history of Sangria
with our own perfected recipe.
