Spanish cuisine varies greatly by region. Begin with “Me gustaría…” (I would like…). Must-try dishes include paella (rice dish) and tortilla española (potato omelette). For tapas, say “De tapeo” to go tapas-hopping. Try sangría or tinto de verano for wine-based drinks. “Pincho” or “Pintxo” in Basque country refers to small snacks. Tipping isn’t mandatory but rounding up the bill is common. “La cuenta, por favor” gets you the bill. Remember, lunch is the main meal and dinners start late!
