La Tapería — Restaurant in Cómpeta

First place I frequented since arriving…it can only get better. Lovely location in the square to people watch. Ordered a couple of drinks and waited an eternity but after asking they arrived without seconds. We then ordered 4 tapas, garlic mushrooms rubbery and microwaved, spicy chicken wings tasteless and microwaved, meatballs cold (not microwaved enough and peppers with tuna…. From a jar in the fridge 🤷‍♂️… didn’t finish the food and I can eat most things… but as Judge Judy says “don’t eat the steak if you aren’t going to pay”.
