🇪🇸 Valencia must eat | Montadito, which is loved by locals

🍞 Tanta Monta: Valencia’s “Hundred Visits, Zero Regrets” Hidden Gem If someone told you there’s a tiny Valencia spot so good, locals line up night after night (and tourists beg for addresses), you’d think it’s hype. But Tanta Monta? It’s the real deal—a hole-in-the-wall serving “montaditos” so delicious, they’ve earned a permanent spot in our hearts (and stomachs). 🥪 What Even Is a Montadito? Think of it as Spain’s answer to “bite-sized perfection.” Mini sandwiches, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, stacked with everything: jamón that melts, cheese that oozes, squid that’s charred just right, cod that’s flaky, salmon that’s fresh… honestly, they could put dirt on a montadito and we’d probably still eat it. Each one’s a tiny work of art—bright, bold, and way too easy to pop in one bite. 💥 Why Tanta Monta Is a Must Addictive factor: We’ve lost count of how many times we’ve been. Every visit, we leave stuffed, swearing “no more,” then text each other three days later: “Tanta Monta tonight?” It’s that kind of place. Local stamp of approval: This isn’t a tourist trap. It’s where Valencian 20-somethings queue up after work, where groups laugh over beers and plates piled high. Blend in, order a round, and suddenly you’re part of the crew. Foreign friends? They’re hooked: Brought a buddy from abroad? Watch their eyes widen on first bite. One even tried to smuggle a dozen in their suitcase (spoiler: they didn’t make it past security). 💰 The Deal At €3 per montadito, and €10–15 to leave stuffed, it’s cheap enough to try all the flavors. Pro move: Get a mixed platter. The “weird” combinations (looking at you, squid + aioli) are often the best. ⚠️ Pro Tips Hours matter: Only open at night—daytime visits = sad, locked door. Arrive early: Lines get long fast. Show up when they open, grab a table, and thank us later. Tanta Monta isn’t just a restaurant. It’s Valencia in a bite: casual, delicious, and impossible to forget. Go once, and you’ll join the “hundred visits” club. We’ll save you a seat. #ValenciaEats #MontaditoMagic #LocalFaves
