Tapas and Paella in Valencia

Fast food has always been around in Mediterranean countries and unlike other 'fast foods', Mediterranean food is not only healthy but very affordable!

The best paella and tapas are always made with the freshest and tastiest ingredients which in Valencia are available from Mercado Central in the Old Town.

Parsley, garlic, saffron, cheese, olives, olive oil, serrano ham, fish and seafoods straight from the sea are integral to the delicious cuisine of Spain.

PAELLA PANS

You'll find many paella pans hanging up outside Mercado Central in the old quarter of Valencia. Inside and outside the market are very affordable bars selling paella and other local dishes.

This area is full of tapas bars and there are many great places to eat.

TAPAS

Serrano ham and cheeses such as Manchego together with olives form the basis of many of the famous tapas.

To enable you to enjoy these we have linked up with La Tienda who offer all of these delicious foods at very competitive prices.

PAELLA

The Albufera in Valencia is the birthplace of paella so no visit to Valencia is complete without trying the delicious cuisine of Valencia.
